Up next on Upon You Rec. is Hartford, Connecticut-based producer Eddie Merced, a name that’s been making waves since his debut - “From Within” - came out in 2016, earning himself instant praise from seminal figures like Laurent Garnier. Stepping up with a trio of his signature oneiric, mind-expanding wares, Eddie takes us on an odyssey-like voyage into the deeper end of techno’s atmospheric spectrum, making the rounds from alien-engineered architectonics towards velveteen, near-lounge-y abstraction.

The journey begins with “Towards A Dream” - a self-revealing roller beaming us up to far-flung Saturnian lands as it unfolds a slo-hatching meshwork of sun-washed pads, raucous bass work and boggy 303 talk. Rising the pressure a notch further, “High Virgo” is a laser-guided weapon aimed at subjugating dance-floors through steadfast onslaughts of delayed drums, gut-churning kicks and Eddie's typical hi-intensity synth hoodoo from outer-space. Last but not least, UY co-founder Marco Resmann adds his havoc-wreaking, dynamic spin to “Towards A Dream”, turning the dreamy original into a full-fledged club destroyer, primed for ruff n'tuff peak time action. Equally at ease in an open-air setting or busting kneecaps in the darkness of a jam-packed basement.
