Up next on Token Records is Kr!z for his first release on the label since his acclaimed 'Atlantis' EP late last year. Keeping his sound pure, Kr!z presents a cohesive collection of decisive tracks for 'Marbles', his third release of 2023.

Kr!z's A1 'Flare Gun' introduces a loopy synth sequence, foreshadowing a minimal but rhythmically effective release from the Belgium based artist. Shuffling hi hats, sprinkled rides, and a round-bodied kick complement the nail biting lead, mapping out the mood for the tracks to come. The sharp quality of 'Flare Gun' quickly smoothes out for its follow-up 'Surge', in which a flexible chord creates a more bubbly atmosphere, competing with anxious white-noise transitions and high paced percussion line. The deeper aspect of Kr!z's work on this last track is quickly subdued by the other side of the record, starting with 'Marbles Lost' - a chaotic club record that holds well to its name. A high pitch arpeggio lines Kr!z's arrangement, sweeping through the spectrum and bursting at the seams with its genre-defining tension. The low end drives the record along, pulsating with the lead to accentuate groove under the drum machine. The outro to 'Marbles' is characterized by an intriguing use of chord triggering over a contained structure. Refined yet effective, Kr!z keeps his promise to honor the true spirit of techno in 'Delirium' with this classically efficient closer for his third EP on the label.
