WOLF 032EP
|
Amsterdam-based Doka presents his third Wolfskuil release, a three-track EP including an original production, "Ask," and two stellar, complimentary remixes from NX1 and Aiken. Doka delivers a raw, melodic track, stripped down with pounding percussion, while unrefined static dances above the beat. Barcelona-based Rising Label owners NX1 manipulate the rhythm of the synth into an elegant hypnotic drive. Madrileño Aiken (Non Series, Semantica) gives the track a whole new flavor, as a throbbing bass sends vibrations through your body while agitated chords flutter throughout. All three tracks, intense and pulsating, are powerful tools for the climax of any set.

WOLF 029EP
|
Doka returns to Wolfskuil with a relentless techno 12". A concept EP based on Figures translated to sequences. "Figure 8" leaves no doubt about what this EP is all about: sweat on the dancefloor. On a foundation of distorted kicks and percussion, an almost alien-esque, out of sync synth pattern emerges and evolves. "Figure 4" explores more dubby and spaced-out areas on a slow, but solid drum track. On the flip things open, even warm up thanks to an acidic bass line and dreamy pads. "Figures" is a disturbing drone and an ambigious ending to an EP where Doka showcases his enormous talent.

WOLF 025EP
|
Doka's uncompromising, relentless techno productions have been extensively road-tested, leaving dancefloors in tatters. So it's due time for his first vinyl release. "Exigent" is subtle, but don't be fooled by its deceiving friendliness. This is peak-time techno at its best: big breakdowns and climaxes, timed perfectly for maximum effect. "Ximul" reminds of old '90s Speedy J releases on Nova Mute with its gruesome, acidic bass-line and industrial sound design. "Kahn" is made of the same cloth, but takes it more on the hypnotic tip.
