Sweet and salty, Berlin-based producer Konduku’s Gelgit EP is a tasty two-part dish ready for the dance. The build on the opening track ‘Gelgit’ is like walking in time toward a spring, fixed in place to the floor at one end, that bounces in impossible perpetual motion. Up and down and up and down, it breaks the laws of physics but is a really great dance partner. Subtle, minimal techno at its finest, and somehow still playful and sweet, we revolve around and around the up-and-down, hypnotized by the patterns of our own making. Sister track ‘Antippen’ breaks itself up into temporal pieces with nice intermittent high tappings on the upbeat and occasional moments of deep synthetic boingings. Bounce, baby, bounce. ☔
