ONAC1D

After a 7-year hiatus, Mauritian techno producer Mutecell is back in action with his first full-length LP, ONAC!D. Releasing on his brainchild, mutewax, the album fuses Mutecell's trademark style, greatly inspired by Berlin, with nostalgic memories related to the Mauritian club scene.

Although Mutecell's soundscapes are usually driven by a mixture of analog sounds and repetitive robotic rhythms in the golden 130-140BPM range, he does not limit himself to 4/4 peak time bangers and showcases his range through tracks like the slow-burn breakbeat track "Gris Gris", the rhythmically syncopated "Orion's Fear" as well as dub-sounding harmonics on the closer, "Kas Poz". Rest assured as the album is still filled from front to back with what Mutecell does best: dark hypnotic slappers.

Mutecell reminisces his path through the Mauritian scene by naming the songs after emblems of the local culture such as names of iconic nightclubs and venues. This represents the crux of the album: the symbiosis of Berlin techno and Mauritian club culture is the identity of this producer. Dive into Mutecell's imaginative music, connecting cultures and experiences through techno creativity.
