Press Info:
Time To Express label owner Peter Van Hoesen returns to his own imprint after his acclaimed Perceiver album in 2012. The ‘Call & Response’ EP features no less than five brand new tracks forged in Van Hoesen’s Berlin studio during June and July 2014. It marks a further development of the Belgian producer’s sound, combining solid dancefloor material with highly personal leftfield techno.

The EP kicks off with two trademark PVH tracks. In both Rift and Situation Two Controlled bass meets expertly crafted sound design. The former references Van Hoesen’s first releases on Time To Express whereas the latter receives a solid dose of modulated percussion to capture the dancefloor.

Hollow Eye is the centre piece of the EP. It provides a turning point, leading the way into a more experimental abstract domain. Its swirling melody slowly moves to surface, working its way up from deep underneath. Chroma 3 (Dark Dub) is an intense live take during which PVH catapults a one-bar groove through an intense variation of psychedelic effects. The EP ends with Call & Response, morphing a minimal, crystal-clear percussive groove into a dreamy, unexpected ending.
