Gladiator Games

Two tracks. A deeper step into techno, but never away from melody.

Where traditional techno strips feeling back, this EP holds onto it. The rhythm drives hard and the atmosphere stays wide open.

The title track builds its energy from something ceremonial. The drums you hear are real, sampled from the opening of the Olympic Games, hundreds of drummers beating as one, a crowd roaring behind them. That scale, that collective force, carries the track across eight minutes without once letting up. Layer after layer arrives, and nothing is taken away.

Runner pulls in a different direction. Retro textures, synthwave warmth, a nostalgic and somber mood laid over a speedy techno rhythm. The tension between those two things is exactly the point.
