With minimum fanfare, Voiski has emerged as one of France's top techno producers. The heads have been in the know for a while (cries of "amazing!" and "masterpiece!" appear on lots of his Discogs entries), and he's released records on the crème de la crème of techno labels, including Delsin, Construct Re-Form, Field and L.I.E.S. But he's only become an international concern over the past few years. Voiski's sound has a subtle musicality that sets him apart from other techno producers. Early tracks like " In A Straight Line " and " Ad Infinitum " are tender and melodic, despite their chest-compressing kicks and trippy sound design.on Russian Torrent Versions displays a mastery of paranoid bombs I'll Be Your Maple Pecan Tonight on Dekmantel UFO brought it all together on a single 12-inch.Voiski is also an experienced live performer, appearing around the world under his own name, as part of Polar Inertia and with his compatriots Zadig, Birth Of Frequency and Antigone as Unforeseen Alliance. For this RA Session, he presents something new: a take on what he calls "post-trance," which amounts to bright, unfurling synth arpeggios and a complete absence of drums. Equal parts Berlin School synth exploration and endless techno breakdown, it shows the emotional nuances that've been lurking in Voiski's music for years.
