David Vunk – Backdoor EP

Dutchman David Vunk returns to his Moustache label with the Backdoor EP, which is a powerhouse concoction of electro, EBM, acid and techno in true bunker style. The 12″ features gritty, all analogue-produced cuts like the hefty ‘Purple Light,’ more bright and melodic stomper that is ‘K2’ and gurgling, swampy, depraved ‘Tornado Acid’. ‘Stop the Insanity’ is a crackerjack of pinging toms and rickety drum machines backlit with synth warmth, all crafted in his basement studio by the harbour and mastered by the master, Alden Tyrell. These are sounds that are ready to storm speakers but do so with plenty of narrative and emotional nuance.
