PLETNEV—an all-around talent who has made a name for himself in the slow house scene under the aliases PONTY MYTHON on labels like FUTUREBOOGIE and QUINTESSENTIALS, and who has recently been actively exploring modern house on PHYSICAL EDUCATION and other labels—has released a collaborative single with vocalist NAMASTRANGE! The release features tracks like “Splitting” (sample 2), which rides a tech-bounce beat with cyber synth work and vocal phrases throughout, and “Ego Collapse” (sample 1), a left-field tech track with a tight, driving rhythm. Psychedelic and psychotic trance flavors are elevated within the tech house context. Also includes a remix by label head JEK! (Original Japanese text by Akie)
