Barcelona’s techno powerhouse Oscar Escapa drops sweat-inducing two-tracker ‘Enemy Returns’ on Drumcode. As well as Adam Beyer, the up-and-coming Oscar Escapa has support from Carl Cox, Amelie Lens, Richie Hawtin, Joseph Capriati… The Spanish producer definitely continues to innovate with techno-infused bursting energy.

The title track ‘Enemy Returns’ is a relentless onslaught of hyperspeed techno, pounding kick drum, layers of hissing brushes and a ‘womping’ bass riff on the backbeat, laced with random off-set industrial stabs, the whole spiced with subtle but hooky variations.

For the second track ‘It’s My Life’, Oscar Escapa teams up once again with Joanna Dark -hers is the robotic voice- for more supersonic techno madness. This time the strata of wild percussion are spiked by a fuzzy bass arp riff, and the spoken automated vocal repeats the title like a mantra, ironically considering the spacey, industrial non-human vibe, while resonant guitar note patterns add a melodic element.

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Enemy Returns’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
