the third instalment on routine comes from our finnish friend jani rantanen a.k.a. outgate, who returns after a break with more machinated techno material in a style similar to that of his rtn001 contribution "take me back". like said track, the musics on this ep revolve around a similar theme: start with a plain beat, break it down, add wondrous little sounds, make a lot of promises, and cut right back to the plain beat. in spite of what you may be thinking: it works wonders in practice.
first off, "our way" starts with an almost clicky kick that takes a few steps to transform into something a little more robust. the bassline comes along in a similar fashion. the track hypnotises you as it drags you along into the break, in which aforementioned wondrous little sounds are added: a sweet dreamy melody... that ends as the beat reinstates itself.
"less sugarless" is a little less minimal in its approach, starting with pulsating lead bass sounds and and introducing a quasi-melodic drum rhythm before long. however, it is similar to its predecessor as far as its hypnotizing qualities are concerned. and of coarse, the same break structure (this time with a nice ethnic vocal) pops up.
the last track has a slight acid tendency. of all three, "camouflage" has the most pronouncedly melodical main loop (which is, nonetheless, repeated endlessly and relentlessly). moreover, it doesn't really have a break with the absence of a kick drum.
on the whole, this ep is one minimal, yet big, hypnotic trip into outgate's personal twist on machinated music. and once more, it has "routine" written all over it. best played loud, and in complete darkness.
