Eduardo De La Calle, Reeko – VALIS002

Eduardo de La Calle has always excelled at crafting economical yet impactful techno. It is often long and settled in its groove, dubbed out to the max and sprinkled with grainy chords. That simple MO has kept him at the forefront for years and here he hooks up with Reeko to serve up four more tracks of his distinctive techno gold to get 2025 underway on a fine footing. ‘Track 1’ is a real pressure builder with waves of synth and icy hi-hats washing over you, ‘Track 2’ then pulls back into murky minimalism and ‘Track 3’ brings the brain-melting bells. All that leaves is t cast you off into the deepest corners of the cosmos with ‘Track 4’ full of celestial wonderment.
