Echocord, the renowned label for dub techno standards, presents its latest release from Mathimidori, the German artist also known for his work under his real name on labels like REKIDS, Ovum, and Freude Am Tanzen. Mathimidori has previously released on Mule Musiq, Raum, Ornaments, and, of course, Echocord, where he returns with his latest offering following his 2020 album ‘Akebono’.
The EP starts off with the mesmerizing track ‘Anata’, a captivating composition that combines pulsating basslines, atmospheric synth layers, dub echoes, and sporadic spoken word samples, all flowing on top of a tight 4/4 rhythm. Following ‘Anata’ is ‘Zanziba’, a deeper dive into the realms of dub techno, featuring ethereal pads, hypnotic low-end pulses, rhythmic stab sequences, and echoes of reggae chants that resonate through the mix.
Highlighting the release is a remix of ‘Zanziba’ by none other than Levon Vincent, the highly regarded producer known for his raw and dynamic sound. In this rework, Levon Vincent injects his signature energy, elevating the track with dub stabs that dynamically unfold and retract amidst a thunderous low-end drive. Intricate synth flutters and a compelling arrangement of low-slung drums add to the ten-minute journey.
Mathimidori’s latest offering on Echocord showcases his mastery of the dub techno sound, supported by the remix prowess of Levon Vincent. This release is a must-listen for fans of atmospheric and pulsating electronic music and further solidifies Echocord’s position as an influential label in the genre.
