SK11X 10 Years
Setaoc Mass selecciona trece tracks de grandes artistas para lanzar un triple vinilo para celebrar los 10 años de la serie X de su sello.
Marking ten years of operation, the Rotterdam-based label gathers its core artists for a 13-track statement of intent – an exhibition of modern techno’s capacity to balance precision and volatility. Across contributions from Yant, Rene Wise, Kr!Z, Blanka and others, the sound is taut, aerodynamic and steeped in tension. Metallic percussion and dubbed-out pressure drive the early side before the compilation opens into murkier spatial terrain – Holden Federico’s ‘Hydro’ and Cirkle’s ‘Delta State’ drawing breath between sharper assaults. By the closing stretch, Altinbas and Kwartz stretch the architecture into near-collapse, finding emotional resonance in distortion. It’s a portrait of techno as living system.
