Resistor by Joel West

Already a firm fixture on Canada’s underground techno scene, Joel West delivers a slammin’ single for Dense & Pika’s Kneaded Pains label, backed with remixes from MSTRKRFT and The GOAT.

Launching his own Groundwerk label in Vancouver back in 2015, Joel West has been shaping his label’s output with his own productions, as well as remixes for Mr. C’s Superfreq label and releases for Re:Define Records and Woodwork Recordings.

‘Resistor’ is a delivered at breakneck speed, so intense, you can almost smell the sweat on the walls, coming out of every pore of this industrial techno stomper! Remixes come courtesy of MSTRKRFT, who serve up a punchy and vocalised version, and fellow Canadian artist The GOAT, who keeps things raw and gnarly with extra acid spice!

Coined originally as an offshoot label to Dense & Pika's self penned label, Kneaded Pains has now taken off into it’s own orbit with a slew of Techno weaponry from new and established artists alike in the shape of Mark Henning, Melody’s Enemy, ONNO, VONDA7 (et al), each release custom made to ignite those tougher leaning dance-floors.
