Dopamine is an odd kind of thing. While it\u2019s usually meant to stimulate us, sustained exposure, for instance through continuous sensory overload, will have the opposite effect in the longer term. Or in other words: it will be the biochemical reason for feeling tired or bored. Our longstanding buddy DML (aka Dirk Lamprecht) is now fighting \u201cThe Chemistry of Boredom\u201d with his very diverse new EP on Broque, which directly hooks up with the right receptors. Our Munich native oft he month has digged very deep into his hard drive to find some hidden gems. As every producer well knows, storage devices turn into gold mines for sketches and ideas, which never were wrapped up and are quickly forgotten, but are full of potential and promises. And, as expected, there\u2019s been material for numerous albums waiting to be discovered. That even can be confirmed just by listening to these five colorful new tracks: here, D\u2019n\u2019B-driven Electronica (\u201cStereotyping\u201d) meets slow dance dub techno (\u201cSFW\u201d) meets Funkst\u00f6rung-ish funky beats over string drama (\u201cPast Redemption\u201d) meets Kraftwerk-inspired synth nostalgia (\u201cBeta Testing\u201d). That\u2019s quiet some diversity for one EP only, all held together by Dirk\u2019s signature chords and sounds. To finish it off, the EP closes with DML\u2019s interpretation of Stefan Tretau\u2019s \u201cJust Before Daybreak\u201d, which gets back to the solid foundation of timeless dub techno, on which most of DMLs track are built in one way or another
\nto defy all short-lived hypes and be with you forever. Certainly no chance to get bored. Eat this, dear receptors!<\/p>\n
