“Blistering techno and beyond.
AnD’s records are as flinty and brutal as anything you’re likely to find this side of gabba. The Manchester duo’s propulsive, distorted brand of techno places them among the current crop of UK producers combining sheer force with groove and funk. Their fascination with the harder end of techno can be traced back to their 2011 Untitled 12-inch on Black Sun Records—an unapologetically banging release with kick drums that ran hot like a soldering iron across sheet metal. Since then they’ve appeared on labels such as Modal Analysis, Brothers and Delsin offshoot Ann Aimee, with each record seemingly crammed with more force than the one before. Kundalini, their latest EP, is released this week through Electric Deluxe.
RA.398 is a celebration of this harder, faster approach, with tracks from the duo’s contemporaries alongside vintage cuts from Regis, Jeff Mills and Robert Hood.”
