gunnar haslam: ataxia no logos

Gunnar Haslam steps up with a new four-track EP on Delsin that showcases his wide-ranging style. The EP opens with "Corridor Metaphysics," a high-pressure bit of deep techno with urgent drums and eerie, haunting glass-tinkling sounds. "Ataxia No Logos" is then a spangled and disorientating track with panning and ever more manic synths encircling the listener. "Dunsinane Hill" is more tender and sensitive, with deep house chords and drums peppered with loose tin pot percussion. "Discrete Markov Dub" is a rippling bit of techno with crisp hits, a fat bass line that pulls you right in and oversized hi-hats leaving long trails.
