  • Listening to Buenos Aires artist Inalco2222's new EP, particularly "Puerta4," the first thing that comes to mind is power electronics—the noise-adjacent genre full of serrated frequencies and tidal waves of distortion. Though rooted in the stomp of hardcore techno and the juddering swing of electro, there's a shadow of power electronics in the ASMR-triggering whispers of "Puerta4." It's an intriguing sound, loud yet hushed and dissolute, as if someone were hissing angrily in your ear. The blown-out whispers add depth, the kind of detail that would stand out in a set full of clobbering rhythms.
