Peace Be With You 2. Hail 3. Remain Seated 4. Look At This 5. In Your Mind 6. Expedition Shane Yates, aka Alpharisc, has been living and breathing techno for over 30 years. He first began producing in the mid-90s and has amassed a fine hardware collection that lends his sounds a raw, rugged feel. After breaking through with the Wetmusik party and label collective, he has let his music do the talking and isn’t afraid of colouring it with a hint of nostalgia. Previous material has come via several notable labels over the years, but his most recent outings have been on SHDW’s Mutual Rytm imprint, with his solo EP ‘Ram Face’ from 2023 becoming an underground favourite alongside a fine outing as part of the label’s ‘Federation Of Rytm II’ and ‘Federation Of Rytm III’ compilations. Once again, he returns in style, uncovering an impactful selection of gems across his new ‘Remain Seated’ EP. The opener ‘Peace Be With You’ is a straight-up techno weapon with urgent synth flashes peeling off the groove like a police siren. The drums hit hard in true Alpharisc style before ‘Hail’ builds on that with a more hard-edge groove topped with frosty waves of white noise that electrify the dance floor. ‘Remain Seated’ brings a hint of trance-leaning energy with its bright sheets of synth lighting up the driving drums and saw-tooth bass loops. Next, ‘Look At This’ is another brilliantly forceful techno sound with slamming drums and rusty synth loops, layering melancholic pads up top and adding a cerebral edge, while closer ‘In Your Mind’ is from the Jeff Mills school of synth-laced and serene deep techno with lush pads radiating cosmic light. As a bonus, digital-only cut ‘Expedition’ brings some backlit celestial synth work to a rubbery and pummelling drum pattern for pure techno escapism. ___ DISCLAIMER: All tracks are uploaded in a low quality for promotional purposes only and with buy links to respect label and artists.
