GUS MT makes a comeback with a targeted two-track release. It demonstrates his ability to harmonize disparate sounds in the realm of underground electronic music. Eleven Records’ Anomaly EP is a gripping investigation of melodic gloom that is both evocative and immediate.
With its unique take on melodic techno, the title track “Anomaly” establishes the mood. This music is especially captivating because of the way GUS MT combines seemingly incompatible components. Airy, almost angelic melodic notes float over a hard, driving techno basis that serves as the track’s backbone. This results in a listening experience that strikes a challenging balance between being intense and calming.
“End You” carries on with this investigation but adopts a more forward-thinking structure. The structure of the song creates strain. This feeling is especially noticeable in the way the breakdown and drop parts play out. This song has a purposeful tempo that preserves the underground edge that characterizes GUS MT’s sound while letting the melodic components shine.
