Neuropean electro hero Dynarec takes his bow on CPU’s roll call of IDM/electronica greats with a classically tangy clutch of machine drills.

For a bit of trivia, Dynarec can lay claim to inventing the term “vaporwave” with his formative private label, although it has nowt to do with the calcified a e s t h e t i c joke that Vapourware has become. Anyway, his CPU debut is a typically damn effective set, defined by a keen melodic edge and crisply propulsive drum programming in four diverse shots, rounding from the strobing vocoder work filleted into the sparkling Drexciyan arps of ‘A Dispatching Role’, to the more discordant, nervy jag of ’Stabilized’ recalling Ultradyne, and that sick flared bassline on ‘Canonical Form’ and the below-the-belt drive of ‘Classification of Elements’ are giving us Automat and Heinrich Mueller vibes.
