lot.te: history of discipline

Mehmet Irdel aka Løt.te (pronounced "loat-tey") follows his 2014 debut on The Bunker New York (Pressure Chant EP). "I'm interested in techno that feels both masculine and feminine at the same time... These days, most techno feels either very intricate and clean, or very noisy and macho" --Irdel. "History of Discipline," built on heavy, swinging kick drums and shuffling hi-hats, builds to an enormous climax before winding down into a rattle of metallic percussion. "A Mutable Constant" features a rubbery bassline and steadily building background percussion -- until a moody, longing synthesizer pad takes center stage.
