EXILES: “Kin Teal (Bálint Haller) is a Budapest-based producer who makes organic and tactile music that’s rooted in club culture. So far, he has released two EPs (via London-based @tropopauserecords and New York-based Human Pitch, respectively), and his latest drop (‘Undercurrent’) was a single on @scuffedrecs. The main aim of his project is to express the contrast and connection between nature and humanity through juxtaposing natural textures with machine-made ones, and this sensibility is ever so evident on circadian, his latest offering.”
SWINE DAILY: As we can hear on this single “upheaval” [“violent or sudden change or disruption to something”], Kin Teal creates original electronic experiments, and with unusual sounds and creative “story” of the song, the listener doesn’t know what to expect. The “robotic” manipulation of the recorded voice and bursts of percussion and synthesizers creates a mysterious otherworldly atmosphere. It requires listening with care and attention, and we like that.

“The five-track EP is tightly packed with unformalized and unpredictable bass music – as per Kin Teal’s ars poetica, heavily digital sounds are carefully intertwined with natural elements. ‘circadian’ is a polished, if not totally pristine body of work: the playfully raw, broken beats carry artifacts of living organisms. The human voice is a central element here; whether chopped and scattered or looped and ethereal, these vocal samples are what make the material really breathe. ‘circadian’ is peak body clock music condensed into 18-minute cycles,” concludes the Budapest-based label.
