What started as a studio session quickly developed into a close friendship and an ongoing creative exchange. Every session since has brought something new to the table, but it is always spontaneous, raw music made without overthinking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetroit and Berlin have always shared a certain language, but these artists speak it differently across an EP that is sympathetic to both. The tracks were built around analogue drum machines, synths, and echoes; classic samplers rooted in ’90s hip-hop production; and contemporary effects pedals, often made in live, one-take sessions with imperfections left in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpener 'Our Muzik' soon sinks you into a deep, cavernous world with a quick, hot stepping rhythm overlaid with deft synth details and heated through with sustained, lingering pads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a darker mood to 'Free Fair' with menacing pads lurking in the background as icy hi-hat ringlets hang in the air and the marching groove hurries through a distant interplanetary world. Alan D. Oldham, aka DJ T-1000, is Detroit techno’s original renaissance man. A producer, DJ, label head, visual artist, and graphic designer, Oldham’s influence runs deep through the culture’s DNA. His version of 'Our Muzik' pairs jacked-up drums with looser, fluid synths and sweeping ambient pads that encourage inward reflection. Last but not least, 'Later Honey' gets gritty: spoken words fragment through the mix, broody low ends bring low-key threat, and there's a rising paranoia despite plenty of widescreen synth warmth. It's soulful machine music of the higher order.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mask","offers":[{"title":"12 Inch","offer_id":55029330542915,"sku":"RPT-36834","price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/1601\/8499\/files\/SRD_20261106_1900_192523_735_v_4070209023441_013.jpg?v=1794222399","url":"https:\/\/www.recordplant.co.uk\/products\/zentaskai-joshua-tree-metro-vice-313-030","provider":"Record Plant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
