A member of experimental duo Solo Andata, Ikin also released material on Taylor Deupree's influential 12k imprint, working with a variety of different sounds and elements over the last decade. Modern Pressure is a milestone for Ikin, written at a trying time that was the producer's hardest financially but most creative musically. Selling equipment to pay the rent, Ikin wrote track-after-track in quick succession to hone his skills, using the process as both a form of escapism and reflection. The resulting album is a mirror of this struggle, a collision of stomach-churning bass and searing percussion that overwhelms your senses, staying with you long after the music has subsided. Ikin manages to harness a variety of influences, folding the sound of early '80s industrial tapes and no wave with the relentless pulse of house and techno, the intense low-end of hardcore and the eerie mood of John Carpenter's most menacing soundtracks. It's an album with a defined narrative that looks to the past without ever losing sight of the future. Dark, shimmering and textured, Modern Pressure is an album for our era - damaged, but not without hope. Mastered \u0026amp; Cut by Matt Colton. Edition of 500 copies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Partial \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Haze Shimmer \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Crosstalk \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Tap Tap Collapse \u003cbr\u003e2.1 Smoke Hood \u003cbr\u003e2.2 Auto Dialer \u003cbr\u003e2.3 Pulp \u003cbr\u003e2.4 Closer Closer\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Kane Ikin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32291510812743,"sku":"30991316","price":22.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/3352083.jpg?v=1747403496","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/kane-ikin-mpdern-pressure","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
