"In a world where oppressively dark techno is approaching mundanity, In Paradisum is a leading light, metaphorically speaking. Putting out blackened, downright evil music from the likes of Mondkopf, Somaticae and former metalhead Run Dust, the French label's techno takes influence from the darkest corners of other musical realms to give it an extra edge. Now they're launching a new series of split EPs called Half Cuts, meant to showcase artists who make music compatible with the label's aesthetic but aren't currently part of the family. The label brings together two Parisian acts for the first 12-inch. There's December, who has released bilious techno for Where To Now and Blackest Ever Black's A14 label, and there's the duo Kaumwald, who gave Opal Tapes a 12-inch of slow, shuddering drones in 2014. For Half Cuts, the two meet in the middle, delivering four molten flows of screeching synths and lumbering drums." --Resident Advisor
