This collaboration on Erol Alkan's label sees The Hacker and Endrik Schroeder revisit their roots. Inspired by 90s dance music, it follows a different trajectory to Hacker's trademark electro. "Puissance 4" resounds to a buzzsaw groove, belching acid lines and tranced out synth stabs. It effortlessly captures the chaotic raw energy of that period. "The Voyagers" also takes inspiration from the wide-eyed early 90s. Led by raw break beats, its detuned hook sounds like the kind of rave-tinged techno Orbital were making around the time of Snivilisation. This release may come as a surprise for Hacker fans, but both tracks are irresistible.
