Description
Braintickle marks its second release with Parisian oddball techno purveyor Rig Thrall. “Dead Hype” opens the A-side with brooding basslines that groan beneath winding electronics and punchy breaks, before ‘Ruins Kontrol’ settles into a darker, more lumbering rhythm, building tension through ghostly samples and a heavy, steadfast beat. On the flip, “Ocean Mathematics” serves up a beatless soundscape that grows increasingly eerie, before the X Agency 5AM Remix of “Ruins Kontrol” takes a sharp turn into menacing electro, driven by warped, gargling synths and gritty vocals.
