North American techno artist JAK last appeared on his SubSensory label in 2013. The decision to branch out from his home base led to a string of well received releases on labels like Trapez, Illegal Alien, Subspec and UKR, as well as an increasingly busy gig schedule. Although JAK's recent work has moved in a darker direction, the three-track, Strength in Numbers EP offers a decidedly warm interpretation of four on the floor techno music. Sampled sounds, overdriven drum machines, guitar pedals and classic synth elements combine to create powerful and memorable grooves. Mastered by David Gross aka Seqwenzer in Portland, Oregon. www.subsensory.com www.djjak.com...
