Active Multiples is a four-track EP from Miami producer, H1MOD. The release features two remixes. One from Detroit producer, Joe Sousa, and one from Chicago’s, Rob Threezy. The release kicks off with Circuit Noise, an effective sci-fi styled techno tool outfitted with 909 percussion, and a modulating synth drum. The second original, Cloud Nine, gets on with a churning low-end groove, atmospheric textures, hypnotic synth elements, and sharp drums. The remix of, Cloud Nine, comes courtesy of Joe Sousa. Joe deconstructs the original and reshapes it into a rugged break beat take complete with rough grooves and a dark droning synth. Rob Threezy comes through with his take on, Circuit Noise. Puts forth a groove based rework of the original with a touch of swing and reworking of the synth sequence.
