It’s hard to believe Senso Sounds has only been
around for five years, such is the frequency and quality
of their release schedule. Now with over 50 transmissions
under the belt, Oliver Huntemann’s home
for precision techno has set a high bar for the rest of
the pack. Fittingly, the label has chosen to celebrate
the 5 year milestone with a series of events around
Europe, and this stellar compilation from some of
the key artists around the label. 5Y Senso Sounds
contains 10 new, exclusive tracks, and provides the
perfect calling card for the label’s ethos.
Kicking things off is label boss Oliver Huntemann
with 'Concorde' - a typically taught, growling slice
of dancefloor gear. The urgent-yet-funky percussion
and modulated chord stabs provide the drama, a
Huntemann signature that sets the tone for the rest of
the compilation.
Longtime Senso collaborator André
Winter also brings the heat - his 'Carte Noire' is hard
as nails, featuring dystopian detuned synth lines and
diamond-hard beats.
Carlo Ruetz has also been a
regular on the label, unleashing a string of tremendous
techno heaters - matched here by his contribution
'Thunder.'
Shaded (aka Skyler Taugher) also
brings his A game, with a trippy, lean burner intriguingly
titled 'I Got Haters'.
Next up is one of Russia’s
top producers - Maksim Dark - another jewel in
the crown of Senso. His 'Mega Pulse' is a driving,
powerful track with a tripped out slo-mo vocal and a
churning acidic, rave synth.
The second half of the album maintains the intensity
and quality. Hidden Empire contribute 'Time Goes
By', a chugging, psychedelic groover with plenty of
attitude.
The Brazilian Alex Stein also goes for the
jugular with 'Turmoil' - a forthright banger with layers
of ravey weirdness to mess with the heads of the
dancefloor faithful.
Hamburg based DJ and producer Hatzler goes in
even harder - 'Almandin' being a tense, pressurised
techno weapon.
Distale has dropped a few excellent
releases on Senso previously, and his 'Hooka'
doesn’t disappoint either - lazer sharp beats underlie
layers of melodic and rhythmic washes.
Last but by no means least, Aitor Ronda from Barcelona,
(a second spiritual home for Senso), provides
one of the many highlights on the release. His
'Hunter Moon' is both subtle and devastating in equal
measures - a fitting testament to the Senso sound.
