Creaked Records continue their quiet insurgency on the fringes of club culture with ‘RDX_CLB’, the latest dispatch from Geneva-based shapeshifting sound-sculptor Owelle.
A multidisciplinary artist operating somewhere between speculative fiction and precision sound design, Owelle returns to the Creaked fold with a two-track juggernaut that drags IDM, breaks, and brooding techno through a cybernetic wormhole. Equal parts physical and conceptual, ‘RDX_CLB’ reads like a tribute to the warehouse – written in binary, printed on broken circuitry and remixed with Ma Sha’s pressure-chamber techno signature and Nite Fleit post-human intent.
The EP’s original material is all contorted tension and synaptic overload, but it’s the reworks that push the release into further dimensions. Nite Fleit takes the reins on ‘P13’, delivering a subaqueous refix that sounds like pirate radio from a submerged future. Opening with what can only be described as amphibian Morse code, Nite Fleit builds a gelatinous electro groove around flickering breakbeats and refracted arpeggios. Glitches dart like drones over decaying cityscapes, while a worming sub bass tunnels through the debris of collapsed genre. It’s high-tempo dystopia with a heart rate monitor thump.
‘RDX_CLB’ EP is scheduled for release on 23rd May via Creaked Records. Order a copy from Bandcamp.
