False Witness

As a founding member of the KUNQ collective alongside long-time collaborator Shyboi, FALSE WITNESS has been steadily building a reputation as one of techno’s most forward-thinking artists, carving out a raw distinctive sound and turning in performances with unwavering, limitless energy. Now the Brooklyn born, Berlin based artist prepares their release on TITDM, with a turbulent stream of protest energy, featuring a remix from multifaceted artist and pace setter within contemporary techno - VTSS.

Title track ‘Let Your X Go’ wastes no time in getting to know its audience. Here, False Witness explores their knack for cutting-edge sounds and no prisoner attitudes; while the tracks echoing vocal loops create a tunnel vision at dizzying speed. On the flip comes a remix from one of the most in demand producers in electronic music, London based DJ and producer VTSS. Following on from her experimental ‘Projections’ EP released on Ninja Tunes’ sister label ‘Technicolour’, VTSS returns to Berlin’s dancefloors with a cut of hedonistic, speaker-shattering energy. ‘The Elevator Game’ causes even further demolition, the sounds of heavy machinery and industrial grunge adding to False Witness’ sprawling sonic palette.

The B side opens its doors with ‘Next Location’ featuring Bootee; it’s pounding kick drums and distorted transmissions worming their way through the metallic pipes buried beneath the tracks exterior. The track’s cathartic nature breathes fresh life into an already furious EP and feels like an important chapter in False Witness’ developing story. Bringing the EP to a close is an exclusive digi only dub of title track ‘Let Your X Go’.
