MY #3 TRACK FOR 2013

























Makson's "Oeuvre" is a masterpiece. One of the most impressive tracks I've heard this year. Nine minutes of experimental electronic music with crazy synthesizers and some Max Cooper-like glitches. 

This is what a modern-day Beethoven would sound like. 

The other tracks of my list:
- #4
- #5

ROD - Hux





















ROD has a keen eye for techno. His dj-sets are filled with literally anything. Whether it's deep and more dubby or droning and dark as hell. ROD has a wicked taste for music. 

"Hux" is a more deep and slow acid techno track then "Anindica" which is the other tune by ROD on Klockworks 11The acid groove isn't very present and just lurks in the background for quite a while. If you listen to "Anindica" you'll notice these tracks are complete opposites of one another. I really like the sharp hihats and loud snares with their ever-changing rhythms. They never interfere with anything else on the track. It's all perfectly balanced. 

You can listen to the other track on Klockworks 11 here.

ROD - Anindica

























ROD has been using "Anindica" in his sets for quite some time before finally releasing it to the public. Both tracks on Klockworks 11 are strong acid tracks, but "Anindica" is one you can use to peak for on the dance floor. Its acid groove is volatile and heavy but in combination with the bassline it sounds a lot more playful and groovy. When ROD uses it in his latest Boiler Room set the room explodes. 

You can find "Hux" the second track on Klockworks 11 here.
