North Carolina-based producer Koppe returns with ‘Isolated Research Sectors‘, his fourth and most fast-paced release to date.
Anchoring his sound signature in introverted ambiance, Koppe shifts gears, delving into a tightly coiled arsenal of machine-made techno and twilight-hued circuitry. Across four tracks, ‘Isolated Research Sectors‘ maps out an unstable terrain where deep techno, dark ambient matter and unstable signals converge like floating particles left behind by a vanished research colony.
Our pick, ‘Pulsating Blue Light’, opens like a lost transmission from an off-grid observatory. Its relentless kick-drums pulse beneath LFO-swept modulations, forming a shimmering membrane that envelops the audience in alien warmth. Ghostly arpeggios dart through the mix like steel-made insects, while reverb-drenched synths emerge in the midsection, illuminating the void with fleeting precision.
‘Isolated Research Sectors’ EP is scheduled for release on 27th June. Order a copy from Bandcamp.
