Zark - 5 [Zarkon Records 005 Promo]

Released via the artist-run Zarkon Records label on May 4th, 2k23 is "5", the fifth consecutive digital two-track single by Zark. Following a simple, but effective naming scheme "5.1." opens on a playful, curious, positive and somewhat trance-inducing MinimalTechno tip before introducing a lovely midrange sawtooth synth motif, housey claps and dreamy piano chords for the late night crowd whereas the follow up "5.2" caters a similar, yet more lively, bouncy and genuinely happy approach to MinimalTechno rounded off with atmospheric background pads and a mid-noughties attitude. Lovely.
