Tracklist: Drift Poly Signal To Noise Rauris Trophic Cascade Aachen Microphase Radical Hope Irrlicht Lost Somewhere In The Day Below The Surface After a six-year hiatus, Efdemin re turns with POLY — his first studio album, released on the recently revived Berghain-affiliated label, Ostgut Ton. As the title suggests, POLY explores multiplicity: of rhythm, texture, style, and emotion. Across eleven meticulously sculpted textures, the album weaves a multidimensional web of sonic references, nodding to the origins of techno while pushing resolutely into uncharted terrain. POLY feels like an afterglow—of decades on the dancefloor, of restless sonic exploration, and of a profound connection to the spaces and communities that have shaped Efdemin’s sound. Over the course of 60 minutes, we are taken through different territories and landscapes of sound. Mysterious and swirling, abstract and droning textures over at times fast and stoic rhythmic concepts. Sometimes the sunlight breaks into the opaque and mysterious soundscapes before the pulse is taken over and sucks us back straight into the club. Show more
