As a pillar within the label’s impressive output, Factory 93’s MODULE series brings a globally curated platform and home for emerging and established talent from across the globe, highlighting the names to know within techno and beyond that are on the radar of the US powerhouses.
After venturing into more stripped-back and minimal-leaning house spheres across the previous edition, the focus turns back to techno and its various shades for #6 as US-based talents Selective Response and DI SUN join Stuttgart’s Kaspar and Amsterdam’s VNTM.
Kaspar’s bold and lively ‘DLCD’ opens things with a swathe of energy and drive, with galloping drums, swirling lead synths and icy hats dancing around acid-dipped bass patterns for a peak-time arrival of power.
Next, VNTM pairs off-kilter and wonky synth stabs with touch metallic percussion and eerie soundscapes across the aptly named ‘The Swarm’, while ‘Back To Basics’ sees Di Sun build an epic and emphatic synth-led journey accepted by heavy-hitting kicks and sweeping tones.
To close, Selective Response keeps the pace high and the temperature steamy with the fiery and peppery grooves of the closing anthem, ‘Underhand Tactics’ – with all four productions looking set to play a big part amongst sets in the heart of summer.
