Various – Aurum006

Review: Aurum006 continues the label’s anonymous ethos with a tightly focused 12” aimed squarely at the heads. The release balances minimal techno precision with deep, rolling groove, driven by crisp drums, subtle acid touches, and a low-end that patiently unfolds over time. Rather than relying on obvious hooks, the tracks build tension through repetition and micro-variation, making them ideal tools for long, hypnotic mixes. There’s a dark, understated elegance to the production, perfectly suited to late-night or after-hours settings. Pressed on vinyl, Aurum006 feels deliberate and tactile—a DJ-friendly release that rewards careful programming and reinforces Aurum’s reputation for quality, no-frills underground music.
