Following his stellar debut on Hydrozoa last year, Japanese studio wizard Hiroyuki Arakawa makes a powerful return to the label with a two-track EP that explores the darker depths of his profound sonic identity.
The journey begins with 'North Pole,' an immersive and high-octane cut designed for peak-time dancefloors. It weaves together a driving rhythm with a soaring '90s-inspired synth line, building a powerful and hypnotic narrative that culminates in a truly climactic moment.
On the flip side, 'Lost Memory' takes a different turn. This is a chuggy, relentless techno track anchored by a heavy bass drum. Laced with intricate percussive details and a searing acid stab, it methodically works its way to a thunderous peak, perfect for those late-night sessions.
Hiroyuki Arakawa delivers another masterclass in production, showcasing his signature blend of emotional and energetic Techno.
