Sister label to Markantonio's Analytic Trail imprint, MKT is all about providing a channel for different concepts in techno music. Looking forward in to the future of electronic music; MKT is a space for new sounds to develop, evolve and emerge. Originally created as a home for Markantonio's experimental works MKT has developed into a chosen destination for fellow forward thinking techno artists. This latest EP see's Bosnia Mladen Tomic (Adult Records) deliver a 4 track EP. Tangas is a powerful, bass driven groove that brings the tension. Opening up with a cleverly drawn out build of shuffling hats and jittery stabs the culmination is comes as the pressure drops and is joined by a heavy kick and pulsing bassline. Blue Avenue see's Tomic throw a large slice of funk in to the tech melting pot to produce a firing, discofied stripped back groove. Constructed of simple but well defined layers this is an unsung hero of a track that DJ's will find very useful. Bubamera combines harmonic melody with driving tribal rhythms to create a truly distinctive piece. High on energy but subtle in its approach, this is peaktime tech house that skilfully combines musical elements with an intense cadence. Black White Man continues this unique sonic journey with a combination of industrial beats and funked up rhythms. The most uplifting of the tracks on the EP, this cut packs plenty of bounce and shimmering atmosphere into the mix.
