Ratios vinyl

Audio Injection's David Flores dons his Truncate mantle to teas up with fellow Droid Recordings stalwart Luis Flores. Compared to their other works, the Ratio EP is rather timid...well minimal. An ultra-light and clacky "Ratio 1" sets the tone for the EP, as does the following "Ratio 2" which is cut from the same cloth and builds in strength like a boxer that's moved from lightweight to middle-weight. On the smudgy stamped reversed-side of the white-label, Luis Flores adds sprockets of alarmed synths and ghoulish chords to his remix of "Ratio 3"; a production desperate to be heard at Berghain. Like the others, "Ratio 3" pulsates with minimal force, as percussion walks up and down its arrangement like a drunk cabassa player falling in and out of time. Proper minimal techno.
