The solid Spanish producer is back. He presents three tracks with his unique style that is clean and repetitive.

Spanish techno artist Aiken is back on his own Timeline label with another EP that offers up four more of his evocative takes on the genre. It comes after previous outings on Non Series and Semantica and is his label s first release since 2016. Basic Principles is up first and mesmerises with a pulsing lead synth line that forever changes shape. Pummelling drums power along below and add up to a disorientating and hypnotic overall effect. Theory is deeper and more rubbery, with manic synths and pads all racing along and pilling on the pressure while Midline is right out fo the Jeff Mills playbook with its molten sci-fi synths journeying through outer space. Clean, crips drums are upright and taught and get you on your toes, then Restriction closes things out in superb minimalist fashion. This EP covers plenty of ground, and all of it is utterly compelling.

Aiken’s recent contribution to Psyk’s Non Series gets remixed by talented UK producers Blawan, Volte-Face and James Ruskin. Blawan's remix of 'Genetics' sets the tone with energetic rhythms and trippy sound textures, Volte-Face delivers a progressive and hypnotic version of 'Hybrid' and James Ruskin ends the release with his own intense yet funky interpretation of 'Dominance'.

Madrid-based Aiken returns this summer on Psyk’s Non Series with a powerful solo EP. The Spanish artist delivers his well-known haunting atmospheres in ‘Genetics’, offering distorted cuts among funky sonorities. A progressive and vibrating pulse characterises this 4 tracker.

An object resists changing its state of motion with inertia. What pushes back must then be even more vigorous in order to create a uid movement. An example of the force that embodies this dynamic can be found clearly on the appropriately titled Inertia, Aiken’s much anticipated return to Chronicle. The Spanish artist has been spending years honing his craft, focusing on sharp, distinct sounds that create a pure sense of kinetic energy. The title track of the EP bolsters a erce disarray of carefully (de)constructed atonal synthwork and a rhythm section that is set to detonate. It is then followed by “Axial”, a track that stays as true to modular miscalculations as it does to stripped down techno, combining both in a subliminal cessation of sanity. However Aiken isn’t done there. He continues with “Magnetism”, which throws a brick in the glass of conventionality with its earth-shaking layers of textured momentum. Phased pads then wash over “Soul Drama”, bringing the entire experience
to an emotionally laced denouement. After the potency of his last record on Chronicle as well as his releases on imprints such as his own label Timeline and the Spanish powerhouse Semantica, Inertia marks a de nitive step forward for an already exceptionally de ned artist.
