Review: Earwax's Tar 21 is a punishing but dynamic techno EP that showcases the artist's mastery of the genre and the five tracks explore a range of techno subgenres, from industrial to tech house, offering a diverse and captivating listening experience. 'Behind The Grid' sets the tone with its relentless warehouse techno, characterised by heavy industrial elements and a driving beat. 'Raw Shadow' transports the listener to a science fiction landscape with its stomping rhythm and percussive intensity. 'Fast Human' takes a more upbeat turn, galloping forward with an almost house feel. The EP reaches its peak with 'Again'. a menacing and alien-sounding heater that pulsates with an eerie and hypnotic energy. 'No Need More' closes the EP with a tribal and fast-paced beat, leaving the listener with a sense of exhilaration and fulfillment. With its exceptional production quality and diverse range of styles, Tar 21 is a workhorse of a record. The EP captivates the listener from start to finish, offering a thrilling release full of excellent techno.
