A veteran of improvised live sets, Nntblst has extracted from his sessions “After me, the deluge”, the first EP of Machine Ouverte. We are proud to present this raw hypnotic techno release with a very personal universe.
Following the artistic direction of the label, the EP was composed and recorded live, the edit is only there to polish and make the set shine. Composed on a small modular case, Nntblst shows us a perfect mastery of his instrument.

The EP is composed of 5 tracks that form a coherent and flawless whole. We navigate through gritty and enchanting atmospheres, contrasted by a thumping intensity throughout the listening.

“When I am dead” welcomes us with its kick wrapped in a groovy reverb, held by a tense and excited rhythm. The spirit of the EP is already there, hidden behind a few notes of synth with a scraped texture, as haunting as desired.

“The deluge May Come” is supported by a solid rolling bass that warns us of the upcoming tension. A “straight to the point” track, full of “ear candies” that we savor with delight.

With its broken techno beat, “For Ought I Care”, is a beautiful tour de force: a tension that keeps increasing, where each part of the track makes us climb one more step, in the middle of its obsessive synth line, to end in a slow and magnificent deconstruction (or destruction?) of its texture.
With “Ruin”, we descend back into a mental and throbbing atmosphere. Its background rhythm runs like a compulsive horse and keeps us on tenterhooks. A striking track with as its climax an absolutely mind-blowing suspended break, led by a beautiful distorted feedback that gives goosebumps.

“Dead and Gone”, a condensed version of the EP’s spirit and energy, is a dancefloor killer. Driven by a roll of distorted toms in a slight delay, quickly joined by the off-beat ride, the track unfolds at the whim of totally hypnotic synth line. Nntblst shows us once again his keen sense of the break with a transposition that makes the head spin to start again in full force. We love it. This last track brilliantly concludes the journey we have been embarked on.

“After me, the deluge” is undoubtedly a mature, rich and striking EP that we can’t wait to hear in the darkness of the dance-floors.
All tracks produced by Nntblst.

" Ok if there is something to say about it, this is a moody record, there is something really atmospherically thick and deep in it, which matches a certain feeling that's been haunting me for a while, that's why the record is named after a Louis xv quote, the feel of seeing my surroundings filled with uncertainty and plow through all of this with this material, it's been an escape valve. It ended up in this material, where the modular is the tool to surpass this feeling. " Nntblst
