Championing a sound both rugged and trance-inducing, Porto-based
Brazilian producer Marcal clocks in this week with two hours blending
future-proof warehouse rave material and claustrophobic 4x4 maneuvers.
Hot on the heels of his latest ’Nature of the Future’ EP on Donato Dozzy
and Neel’s imprint Spazio Disponibile, Marcal takes us on a
mind-bending ride down raucous sine-scapes and brooding, verbed-out
atmospheres, constantly pushing the envelope of techno as can be
experienced these days. Resuming its course as a means for transcending
our (currently much gloomy) zeitgeist, techno here gets back on its
revolution-friendly tracks, finding its second breath as a metamorphic
tool for blazing new paths and routes towards a better, more
intelligently designed world. There goes a mix that summons the very
finest of Marcal’s boundary-pushing vision and killer knack for crafting
memorable and emancipatory floor narratives. Brace yourselves.
