[MINUS116] Matador - Nomans Land

Minus are proud to present the newest member of the family, in the form of Matador. In the past four years Gavin Lynch's sounds have found a home on Perc Trax and Cocoon, plus most recently on Plus 8 , where Richie Hawtin recently introduced the young Dubliner ahead of his first Minus event (at Berlin's Watergate, joining the Minus team for the official Fly Bermuda after party), with his stellar remix of Bryan Zentz's D-Clash. After that introductory taste, Matador now takes the bull by the horns for his first full EP for Minus, exploring the twisted but organic techno sound he's best known for.

Hawtin fans will recognise the EP's title track instantly as a jewel in the crown of his recent Boiler Room set in Amsterdam, for the hugely influential internet broadcast's Minus showcase from ADE 2011. All bleeping soft focus melody lines and cantering kicks, it's a slowly building bomb.
Elsewhere there is shimmying, suggestive minimal coated in warm tape hiss on 'Mambo' and brooding, heavily-weighted backroom sounds speckled with rasping, rising synth lines and glistening percussion on 'Hitbox.'

'Nomans Land' is a bouncy, with wispy hi-hat ringlets and a buried-in-the-mix, undecipherable vocal running through it. The little details around the edges are what bring the groove alive. Coming from a different angle altogether is Korrado': its melancholic notes hang above firm, pulsing kicks and bittersweet overtones.
