Boom Merchant lands on his record label Tribal Pulse with a gritty EP titled Mexico on MPC, that features both techno and breaks.

The opening two tracks, “Acapulco” and “Dadle,” are in Boom Merchant’s traditional techno style, but the last track, “Fivejag,” shows another side to his sound.

Fivejag is a breaks track with a lurching bassline and phasing drums, giving it a warping sound that is full of intensity. It moves away from the techno music that Boom Merchant has released on record labels like Gain Plus and Autektone Dark, but it is not out of place on Tribal Pulse, as the imprint often releases breakbeat tracks by Ukrainian artist Hockins.

Acapulco is likely the track that most people will gravitate towards, as it has got churning techno percussion layered under a blissful lead synth. The warmth of the melody and industrial feel of the drums make this a perfect sunrise techno track.

Dadle is a quirky track that might split opinions, because at its core it is a dark and brooding techno track, but its breakdown introduces a jazz flute section. The jazz sample makes it a unique way to break up a DJ set, but it does also move away from what would otherwise be a hypnotic groove.

It is a unique release that has already proven popular with a range of DJs including the likes of Anna Reusch, Slam and Maceo Plex.
