I didn't count the BPM, but this material is fast. Using a distorted sound that is to compare with typical rhythmic noise's acts and setting up strong but linear patterns, this guy goes on to fit this harsh hardcore techno shade of noise and if there ever is a third volume of the "Biomechanik" sampler, he has good chance to be on it. Still, the tracks aren't just buzzing speedcore or braindead gabber, and feature the unionized minimum of breaks and changes in rhythms, while never loosing the dance appeal in sight and keeping the digital overdrive cranked on maximum. In the end, you get something that has a definitive hardcore edge and works pretty well, making me think that DJ Tense is everything Hypnoskull dreams of being. Definitely hard stuff for DJ more than something for home listening, "Kadaver" hits hard and fast, and you'll probably get a glimpse of this next time you go to your favorite hardcore party.
