Up next on Balans is a Brazilian old school house & techno talent extraordinaire. He operates under the monniker Betek and has only one release on Black Stripe under his belt so far. This is about to change, because he will be a regular on the imprint from now on. Hailing from beautiful Rio De Janeiro, you might not expect an artist who is dedicated to old school Roland drumcomputers and bassline machines. Betek clearly has a big love for the the EDM past, but takes it well into the new millennium with a fresh angle. Using the best of both worlds he delivers three original acid cuts. Both versions of ‘U Funking Confuse Me’ are firmly settled in the Chicago acid house tradition we all have come to love. Bouncing multiple 303 basslines and 707 and 808 drummachines are draped in strings and pads with beautiful melodies and textures. Wood Engraving is a fierce techno stomper, sweeping everything in it’s way with brutal acid patterns and fierce drums. You can expect more of Betek this year!
