Rulon Chart: Angel Heredia Maps the Current Tech House Landscape
With Rulon Chart, Angel Heredia delivers a selection that reads as a precise snapshot of contemporary tech house. Thirteen tracks spanning the organic depths of minimal deep tech to the peak-time energy that defines the finest European club floors. Heredia himself opens proceedings alongside Raul Pacheco on RULON, a 130 BPM cut in Gb Minor that sets the tone immediately: compressed low-end, surgical percussion, and unyielding tension from start to finish.
Key Labels and Unexpected Finds
The label roster speaks volumes. Hot Creations appears with Italobros' Inside, a deep house piece in C Minor providing an organic counterpoint to the set's harder edges. Glasgow Underground chips in with the playful Gitty Up by Eros Santisi, while Mindshake Records takes three slots — Fer BR with A Night In Chicago and Cut The Noise, plus Merissa Mahilaa's Kitty Kat — cementing the label's dominance in the Iberian and Latin tech house circuit.
