label: DRUMCODE Cat.No: DCLTD40

Hungarian producer Dave Wincent and German-Filipino producer Wigbert collaborate on a new four-track album, "Collab," on DCLTD. The EP marks their debut together. Collab02: stripped-down, no-frills minimal techno, a relentless wall of percussion with subtle note pattern shifts embedded within. Sibilant vacuum cleaner-like sounds, like waves of static electricity or desert winds, add intrigue to an austere soundscape. Echo Chamber: fast, resonant drumming, with a hi-hat crescendo introducing rhythmic, machine-like industrial sounds... haunting yet high-energy. Fly Back And Forth: muffled beats, a pulsing Moroder-esque synth effect from the outset, hypnotic yet energetic. Acute, pulsating synthesized chords add emotional weight. Resonant Control: a complex wave of percussion that keeps presenting itself, with a high-pitched streak that expands in tone and becomes dominant, punctuated by beeps like mysterious radio signals from space.
