Dark techno queen Denise Rabe delivers two tracks furnished for the dark abyss of eerie warehouses on her self-titled label, including remixes from acclaimed peers Headless Horseman and Luis Flores.
The Berlin based artist begins her 5th episode of RABE releases with a tranquil yet rigid soundscape on “Pretending”. The relentless pounding kick entrances you throughout while ghostly textures and melodies delicately creep in, sending the mind naturally adrift as her discography is known to do. Headless Horseman provides an industrious broken beat adaptation, sending the already haunting vibrations even further into the depths of hell with accents such as soul-consuming drones and off-kilter percussion fills that give a fresh take on the original.
Luis Flores also knocks his remix out of the park with a propulsive take on her affirming titled B-side “Unresolved Tension”. While the original mix stays true to the title with gut-retching, anxiety-driven broken beats throughout, Luis drives the supernatural tones into energetic four-to-the-floor territory while keeping the vibes sinister and menacing.
Denise continues the captivating story of her unfiltered mind with another successful chapter on her RABE label, a chapter poised for grandeur by encompassing such heavy-hitters as the Horseman and Flores.
