Description
2018, 2×12″ LP, Sushitech.
Fans of stripped-back, minimalist techno – particularly the Eastern European variant focused around Romania’s thriving scene – will happily tell you that every release from Christi Cons and Vlad Caia’s Sideways Invisibility Theory project (AKA SIT) is worth checking. This, a double-pack containing half of the tracks from their new album is certainly noteworthy. It features a quintet of trippy, low-slung late night workouts seemingly designed to operate in the cracks between tech-house and minimal techno. There are naturally subtle variations throughout – a nod to dub techno here, a psychedelic acid line or dreamy deep house texture there – but throughout, their focus remains firmly on wonky early morning workouts. – Juno
