No rookie to the Stil vor Talent family, which he's graced with a couple high-voltage contributions the past few years, Julian Wassermann turns up on Light My Fire with his latest two-tracker, 'Hallodri'.

Not letting go of that typical electrifying style of his, the Munich-based producer serves up yet another pair of hair-raising floor-focussed stunts, ready to set sound systems ablaze. Geared up with his Moog Sub 37 and OB-6 for main companions, Wassermann has us vibing to a slightly darker and grittier material than his more recent iterations, perfect for that time when the mix needs to tighten its grip on the ravers and the machine funk goes bang. Exploring the confines between Italo-laced electronics and deeper techno folds, this new effort has club incendiary written all over it.

Giving its name to the release, 'Hallodri' is a synth-riddled epic of the finest order. Copiously glazed with FX, filtering and saturations, the track emerges from dubbed-out depths onto interstellar territories like a ghost ship. Bristling with awe-inspiring audio details as provided by the OB-6 and its near endless flow of quality patches, this steadfast burner cruises across the vastness at its own rate, continuously pushing us to dive further into its malleable matter to reveal unsuspected listening pleasures with every listen.

In Wassermann's admission a more "emotional" number, 'Ego' follows a more straightforward prog techno route, though it clearly bears the producer's smooth hand when it comes to overall tension, abrupt freq shifts and intricate buildup architecture. Recorded on his Moog, the track works as a true-school deep-tech hypnotizer you'd gladly see running over dramatic video game footage or naturally imagine going off full blast at mega festivals. Peak-time crusher, no matter what or where.
