Carlo Ruetz makes a welcome return to RUKUS with his five-tracker ‘Dimensions’.

Hot on the heels of last year’s phenomenal ‘Creatures’ EP, the German producer delivers another tightly woven
techno stomper. A true craftsman, he challenges himself at every turn, yet never compromises on quality, and
this EP is a captivating, forward-thinking journey to the dance floor.

The title track ‘Dimensions’ is a dramatic tale of portamento heavy arpeggiated riffs with a droning sub line and
brisk, insistent percussion. It’s classic techno with a modern edge and indicative of Carlo’s passion for
creativity.

‘Stars’ follows offering explorative, granular synth work tied together with complex drums and tangled
undercurrents. ‘Obscure’, a much more giddy affair, is punctuated with moonlit, urban staccato notes and 909
hats.

In ‘Dusk’, airy overheads and urgent sweeps are accented with nocturnal growls and a commanding 16th note
bass line. The EP closes with ‘The Ark’. Snappy, early Detroit vibes, stiff arp lines and glistening peaks evoke a
dystopian future with subtle shifts of tone and tune, and a sense of twisted balance.
