G It's not only that the music in it's core is good, but the engineering here is something to look up to! This is someone who put in the work, and this is what it sounds like. Favorite track: Steady Pace.

nondriver/Hårek Sublime tribal and hard grooves from Chlär.. yet again <3 Favorite track: Greedy Man.

MICHEL The chimes midway the track are killing me!!! It makes me think of video game hits from my childhood.
Absolutely sick record! Favorite track: Intrinsic Drive.

Cedric Lawrence Insane production! Certainly in my TOP releases of 2023 ❤️ Favorite track: Dopamine Rush.

Cameron This EP is so good - I can't sit still while listening to this. It's forsure a top release of this year for me, too. Chlär doesn't miss! Favorite track: For Marco.

about

Swiss artist and mastering engineer Chlär’s last outing on Mutual Rytm, his ‘Optimized Grooves’ EP, was a stand-out success that made an impact far and wide across the techno realm. It was another big step for the fast-rising producer, who is also a dexterous DJ that plays across three and even four decks in the club. A craftsman of sounds, his take on techno is full throttle and has come on labels like Iceland’s NIX and Stranger’s Self Reflektion imprint. Always looking to improve his sounds, he hits a perfect sweet spot with a fresh and visionary approach across six fresh productions with his ‘Intrinsic Drive’ EP, again showcasing exemplary creative progression in his ever-impressing production skills.

Up first is ‘Dopamine Rush’, a quickened techno pumper with synths peeling off the straight-ahead drums and locking you into a state of hypnosis. The title track ‘Intrinsic Drive’ is a tightly woven mix of drums, hits and bass that never lets up, while the supple rhythm is overlaid with alien sound designs to up the intensity. ‘For Marco’ takes a heavier path with darkened and more weighty kick drums under eerie synth loops. There is a real swing in the drums of ‘Steady Pace’ as the crisp hits and vocal fragments all up the ante, before ‘Greedy Man’ delivers a tough panel beater with skewed synths and an industrial undertone. Digital bonus ‘May I Dance?’ rounds things out with raw textures and unhinged loops that take you to the heart of a strobe-lit dance floor, shaping up another mighty fine statement of intent from the ever more vital Swiss native.

Carnal Fever

Man I am a sucker for the harder techno with the sort of innovative sound design often associated with lower BPM's. The mangled dubby vampire-bat vocal snippets on on "The Hive" really do it for me. I picture these tracks also working well pitched down -8/-10 which might add to their ominous tone. jonarmst
