Next up on the Wicked Bass label is newly emergent Detroit talent Manuel Gonzales, aka MGUN. This is a three track EP from the man who has previously appeared on labels such as The Trilogy Tapes and Wild Oats that is aptly titled and that showcases his raw style perfectly. Opener 'Mono Port' is a sludgy, dirty track with scuzzy ambiance, grainy white noise and plenty of grit obscuring buried deep kick drums and raw synth patterns. Second track 'Frosted Lakes' is a just as knackered sounding bit of whacked out techno. Broken kick drums trudge below spiralling synths, static interference and the general imperfect buzz and hum of analogue gear and it builds into a loopy banger that will blow minds as well as speakers. Last is 'Chip Implemented', another dystopian bit of depraved sounding techno with groaning synths, hurried drums and plenty of stormy winds blowing across its face. This is hugely textured, darkly cerebral music that manages to be minimal in d esign yet maximal in impact from start to finish.
