For this installment we bring Mark Otame to your attention, an artist with a futuristic melodic and techno vibe very pleasant to the techno scene. He has landed to our imprint with a 2-tracker stunning EP called "Beyond Horizon" full of ethereal-synth perspective which is melting with the melodic techno-based sounds. "Beyond Horizon" is composed by a diversity of sounds that allow us to perceive the harmony and the divine. A world without contrast and polarization is a blind world. The music tells us a story that begins with an engaging melody guiding our ears through a mysterious atmosphere, in which rhythmic elements are progressively presented until we reach a small break, giving us the feeling that something extraordinary will happen, then when our guiding melody suddenly disappears and darkness takes over our horizon, organic percussions and dark drones sneaky carry us to the climax of our experience: the warm touch of a rolling bass with oscillating cutoff associated with high-speed drums in a way that makes us dizzy! While the eponymic title track comes in smoothly and builds up across the whole duration, "Dynamite" gets there a bit faster if not rougher. A true audio reflection about desires which is a necessary condition for evolution. It's the contrast between light and shadow that allows us to see. The track explores melodic movements and dark tonalities, in a perfect combination of synth and bass, creating a melodic percussion that dictates the rhythm.
