Belgian up-and-comer Wala punches in this week with two hours of
elegantly stripped-back techno grooves and velveteen atmospheres. Clad
in soft, fuzzy envelopes, his music summons the finest of immersive
Basic Channel-ian dubs and sensual Detroit house churners, dishing out
cinematic sequences rife with minimal, reverb-soaked drifters and slices
of deep-diving, hypnagogic abstraction. Emotional and articulate, his
sonics fuse the elegance of classic, progressive 90s rollers with the
future-proof vision of state-of-the-art electronic research - evolving
at the fringe of full-fledged floor-busting potentiality and skirting
the conceptual, off-kilter side of house and techno that keeps the scene
afresh with a renewed - and much needed - call for undomesticated
innovation and self-affirming gravitas. Surgical.
