Measure Divide makes his full debut EP for Mutual Rytm X with his latest release, Everything Is Porridge. Karachi-born artist Measure Divide now resides in Toronto, where his FORMAT parties have revived the techno scene over the last decade. In that time, he has eschewed techno by numbers with innovative sounds on Clergy and Mutual Rytm while appearing at iconic clubs like Berghain, K41 and Tresor. Outside of the underground, he has years of experience in sound design and scoring for animations and films, and that is what he channels here into a uniquely playful sound with a vibrant and playful departure from his usual serious tones for his first full EP on SHDWs Mutual Rytm X. A record for adventurous DJs and listeners craving bold, mischievous and innovative sounds, the EPs title, inspired by an inside joke about calling anything edible ''porridge'', reflects the chaotic and unpredictable state of the world - a mushy mix of uncertainty. This same unpredictability shines through the tracks, which combine techno, breaks, modular experimentation and plenty more. The superbly original title cut begins with a restless mix of unusual percussive sounds and fizzing synths over thudding drums. Its tense and twisted and sounds like nothing else. Wormy Wonderland is another brilliantly outthere cut with freaky noises and scuzzy textures over body-popping techno drums, and Eeeeeermmmm then slows down with a menacing synth buzz and caustic broken beats.
