Agaric
“The Dark Holds the Sun”

Sunset Discos — Germany

Taking a darker turn, Mikael Stavöstrand’s Sunset Discos label impresses once again with a deep, demented release by Swedish Berlin-transplant Agaric. Moving away from his harder techno roots, Agaric’s explorations in the slower, funky side of techno come to full fruition here. This one enters a deeper space than the basic shminimal you-know-what. Remixes by Camea and Stavöstrand round out the EP with a tasteful, freaky vibe.
