The second and final EP of 2019 on Yoyaku offshoot Joule comes courtesy of Salmanazar, a previously unheralded producer who has yet to make his or her mark in electronic music (or at least under that alias - details of the artist's identity are sketchy at best). The headline attraction is "Objects", a deep, warm and rolling exercise in tactile tech-house blessed with trippy spoken word snippets, liquid synth riffs and a chunkier, slightly dubbed-out accompanying remix by fast-rising producer r.hitect. Over on the flip, Salmanazar first joins the dots between 80s electro, Orbital's "Semi-Detached" and hazy late night tech-house on "The London Scene", before offering up a rubbery slab of heady mid set tech-house in the shape of dreamy EP closer "Triggers".
