Bleep

After breaking cover early in 2019 to release Red, the Locust renaissance continues with new EP Green. This is another set of properly dystopian techno from Mark Van Hoen. Synths burble and chatter over unrelenting kicks while unidentifiable reverb-drenched sounds skulk around in the background. Cuts like ‘Staircase’ and ‘Arch Enemy’ are as cold as they come. Artists such as KiNK later took on Locust’s mantle, so it’s good to hear from the originator once more.
