Premiere: Stream DJ Deep and Roman Poncet’s Hydraulic Pressure EP
Working together under the Adventice moniker, the producers lay down three tracks of hard-charging techno.
Sure, DJ Deep has been been one of the leading lights of France’s clubbing firmament for two decades—but he’s certainly not one to sit back and smell les fleurs.
Last month, the producer, once known primarily as a house acolyte, released a trio of rubbery techno tracks on the L.I.E.S. label’s sterling Rébeval EP; hot on its heels, a collaboration with fellow Frenchman Roman Poncet resulted in Extraction, a three-tracker of steely, loop-driven cuts for the venerable Tresor imprint. The pair, together known as Adventice, are already back for more, and once again, tough late-hour techno is the order of the day. Like Extraction, the aptly named Hydraulic Pressure EP is full of pumping rhythms and skeletal brawn, with the release’s B2 cut—the gorgeous “Artesian Well”—supplying a bit of chilled release. It’s an utterly confident set of tunes, swaggering its way to a dancefloor near you.
Coming out soon in both vinyl and digital formats on the Tresor label, Adventice’s Hydraulic Pressure is available to stream in its entirety below.
