"Irrational X" is 'minimal techno' in the vein of Robert Hood and Wolfgang Voigt's Studio One. The pursuit of perfect repetition is a nearly alchemical endeavor, for when there are so few elements in a track they must be totally harmonious. Hoesen works with heavy materials, yet the movement is always forward and never downwards. "Irrational X" is propulsive, with ghosts of a motorikpulse in plain sight.
"Irrational X (Slowmix)" is heaving, disorienting piece of pitch black psychedelia. This track would be both frightening and liberating in a club context, listening to it instantly conjured visions of invertebrate inspired dance moves. Hoesen expertly contrasts a warm low end with lightning strike highs.
Berlin duo Exercise One's remix of "Irrational X" is less of a slow burn than Hoesen's versions. The percussive sounds in this dubby rising track slap especially hard and the remix would be easier to integrate into a set that straddled house and techno then Hoesen's more purist creations.
