markus suckut: voices in my head

Markus Suckut is a well-known producer in the techno world, whose releases have found a home on such respected labels as Rekids, Odd Even, Hypercolour, or Edit Select, to name just a few. Suckut is also the founder of the SCKT imprint. The Düsseldorf producer has been a part of the Made Of Concrete family for some time now and the pair up between the two on Voices In My Head feels like an ideal match. The title track "Voices In My Head" may give off a tranquil feel but pay close attention and you'll hear the psychosis bubbling below the surface. The synth scribbles that underpin the track would get the best of a sane mind in the right setting. "8" follows. It's a smart, profound cut designed to raise the pressure on the dancefloor. On the flip, "Drift" comes to life with fantastic mind-bending sweeps. Label bosses Rebar close the EP off on a quasi-devotional touch with their rework of "Voices In My Head". The pair stays in the deep end with sublime synths and a stripped back rhythmic architecture. It's a perfect counterpoint to Suckut's original.
