DJ Spider “Divine Builders”
BleeD’s first release of 2016 comes from American techno heavyweight and label debutant, DJ Spider. The highly regarded New York scene vet serves up a typically harsh, potent EP – featuring a remix by label boss Volte-Face.
Burning Museums is a continuation of Spider’s prophecies of complete societal collapse; it is said to “represent the loss of knowledge of mankind by the modern scientists who are destroying ancient texts in their attempt to erase history.” First up on the B-side and giving the EP the oomph you’d expect from such a description is “Divine Builders”. Right from the beginning of the track you are hurtled into DJ Spider’s unnerving world of anger and destruction. A seriously kicking beat, supernatural voices and transportive noisy based synths combine brilliantly, painting a picture of possessed scientists running riot in a museum – or something like that.
When premiering Volte-Face and Daniel Avery‘s “Rote 2” last year, we said “We’ll stop running these BleeDing premieres when they give us a reason to.” No change there then.
Keep your ear close to the ground, Burning Museums is dropping on BleeD later this month.
