Plastic Toys, a record label known for its heart-pounding peak-time techno, is making waves with its latest release – a two-track ‘Touch My Soul’ EP by the talented Patrik Widmer.
Patrik Widmer, a Zürich-based Swiss artist, has been a significant figure in the electronic music landscape since the 1990s. His work is deeply inspired by the iconic sounds of the TB-303 synthesizer and the 909 drum machine, elements that have become synonymous with the spirit of techno. With this latest release, Patrik continues to explore the dynamic range of techno, from its dark, brooding textures to its explosive, euphoric highs. ‘Touch My Soul,’ the EP’s original track, is a masterclass in building tension and release, featuring a powerful kick drum, enveloping bassline, and trippy vocal textures that culminate in a euphoric, breakbeat-driven breakdown before diving back into the depths of its dark, percussive energy.
The EP also includes a ‘Rave Mix‘, where Patrik takes the energy even higher. By introducing a relentless acid synth line and cranking up the tempo, this version is designed to take listeners on an even wilder ride, perfect for those peak moments on the dance floor when nothing but pure, unadulterated techno will do. Patrik Widmer’s latest offering on Plastic Toys is a testament to his enduring passion and creativity in the techno genre, promising to be a staple in DJ sets and on dance floors around the globe.
This new EP marks Patrik’s second outing on Plastic Toys and showcases his signature blend of dark atmospheres, driving percussion, and twisted euphoria. For those who love techno that both energizes and enthralls, Patrik’s latest work is a journey through the intense emotions and boundless energy of the genre.
