Skorpium and Kri Samadhi - SnakeHawke by T.O.U.C.H. Samadhi

Inner labyrinth by T.O.U.C.H. Samadhi

“Tek,” the second release from Aought (known to the psychedelic trance world as Kri Samadhi), transports you back in time to 1992. But not our timeline’s 1992 - a darker, more apocalyptic 1992, in which ravers invented halftime and techstep sounds early to cope with societal collapse and constant surveillance. Drawing from that year’s breakbeat hardcore and nascent sampler-based jungle, Aought invokes “Hardcore Junglism” by Manix, “Suicide” by Hannibal Lecter, and tracks by Neuromancer, Fresh Trax, and Nick Power & DJ KU. “The Rush” is a clear ode to darkside rave music, getting as close as Aought gets to an outright dancefloor heater; “Tek Nek” is a hard-driving slice of anxious dancefloor energy, where snarling rave hoovers twist amid dark ambience and skittering beats. Opening tune “Borg” uses dry & clicky percussive sounds to contrast with the toxic sludge of its bass sounds. The “Tek” EP embraces paranoia and reinvents 1992 in a way you’ve never heard.
