RLGN joins forces with a series of collaborators on his new ‘Romantichrist’ EP, on Maceo Plex’s Lone Romantic.
Russian innovator RLGN has a rough and ready techno sound that has come on Boysnoize Records, Private Persons and Don’t Recordings. He is part of the experimental wave of post-Soviet artists mixing up scruffy basement techno with acid-laced modern electronics. Here he works solo on two tracks as well as with frequent collaborator Locked Club – a fellow Russian electronic punk, DUMMFÖUND – a Middle Eastern melody master who does everything from disco edits to house, breaks and techno, and Stelmakh – a musician, pianist and composer from Belarus.
These five fierce and formidable techno fusions on ‘Romantichrist’ EP, ‘Olonkho’, ‘Betrunkener Hund’ with Locked Club, ‘Mahaut’ with DUMMFÖUND, ‘Thriller’ with Stelmakh, and ‘Rain In Kyoto’, will take no prisoners.
We are presenting RLGN’s second solo track ‘Rain In Kyoto’, a punchy electro-techno workout with busy synth modulations, lush bell melodies and turbocharged basslines.
‘Romantichrist’ EP will be released on the 2nd of December, on a special Bandcamp Friday, alongside a new Lone Romantic merchandise line, and it is available for pre-order on Beatport.
