Spike by Gregor Tresher
Cocoon Recordings presents a freaked out deep techno highlight by two masters of their craft: Gregor Tresher & Petar Dundov! Especially the a-side Spike is a crazy monster and we do not exaggerate by writing that we have never heard something like this by these two masterminds before. Mental, hypnotic and with a neverending synth firework that modulates with an endless release effect. The two really pushed electronic dance music at least ten steps further. Tresher & Dundov second mutual work on Cocoon Recordings follows with Differentiator. The two stick to the basic concept of Spike however this time it is the good old arpeggio that keeps on modulating until eternity. Differentiator almost flows with a little trance appeal and there is even a cool and driving acid bassline giving us the final push. Tresher & Dundov present us two massive techno tunes that will definitely play in their own league this season!
In the trend-driven universe of electronic dance music, Gregor Tresher is the rare artist who transcends such cycles. Just as a painting or a photograph appears to move if one stares at it long enough, close listening to the stratified grooves and melodies in Tresher's music reveals an organic universe of shifting sound.
