ORBE‘s latest on Manuel Anós‘ Non Series record label, a four-track EP titled Binary Function, is a compelling techno release from start to finish.
Beginning with “Prisma,” the EP starts things off simply with a stripped-down beat accompanied by faint samples and the occasional burst of energy before evolving into a light, minimalistic soundscape. Its title track fleshes things out by building on the faint samples and crackles of energy boiling underneath the surface to deliver a more complex sound. He closes things out with “Repetitions,” a track that sees him discard a lot of the previous themes to explore a more primal, almost tribal sound that ebbs and flows with confidence.
