Half a year after the Dutch DJ/producer’s debut release on his new Maximalist_Minimalist imprint, SAMA makes his return with MXMN002.
Cementin the venture into his new, gritty sound, the release sees his pitch-perfect production moulded into another set of four hard-hitting, club-ready techno tracks.
Leading the release, 'End All' combines gritty shakers, hard kicks, and synth stabs for an eerie, atmospheric lead track. 'Kill The Heat' follows with dark arpeggiators over modulating rhythms and robust drums. On the flip, 'Forced To Revolt' kicks off the B-side with an intense vibe, placing the focus on evolving and interweaving synthesis, before 'Tripping Over Wires' closes the release with its groovy percussion and trippy melodic sensibilities.

"Meeting points,
the end is the beginning.
Echoes of a conversation
where revelation promises revolution.
My feet in the future
mark the direction of my movement,
and my mind in the present
turns illusion into experience.
I let go, I trust
and flow with the sound
of my silence."
