A modular techno masterpiece rooted in the psychedelic/rave techno scene of the American Midwest—where Chicago and Detroit intersect—that embodies futuristic yet funky psychedelia! LONEFRONT, a key figure in the U.S. underground scene—a resident at “Intellephunk,” which leads the Minneapolis scene, and a regular at “The Great Beyond”—has released a new EP.
Track List
Catalog No. 5 from 〈CRYSTAL CEREMONY〉—a sub-label of 〈TRANSMIGRATION〉 that has featured techno artisans such as BLACK MERLIN and ATOMIC MOOG! Starting with “Glotto” (sample 1)—which races forward on a Detroit-style 16-beat drum machine infused with funkiness, set against a psychedelic, crystalline synthscape—the release unfolds into modular techno that traces the history of Midwestern psychedelia. Featuring tracks like “Celblot” (sample 2)—a sci-fi techno soundscape built around a recurring mutant modular synth—this release showcases the hypnotic textures modern dance floors crave, representing the cutting edge of U.S. underground techno.
