Italian rising Techno star Alignment to release “Power” EP on Charlotte de Witte’s KNTXT

New school Italian techno sensation Alignment is back with a third thrilling EP for on Charlotte de Witte’s KNTXT label that once again stands him apart.

Alignment’s previous outings on the label – the Time EP in April 2020, then his Nothingness EP in November 2020 – made huge impacts. They are standout techno offerings from a young and exciting artist who has quickly risen to the top. He has remained hugely busy in the last 12 months with a wide-ranging sound that takes in everything from old school bangers to trance-tinged rollers via futuristic workouts.

Says label boss Charlotte de Witte, “Alignment’s music has been strongly represented in all my livestreams of 2020 and 2021 and I honestly can’t wait to finally bring his music and his latest creations on Power EP to the dancefloor. It’s made to make you move and I’m very happy to have him on board once again!“

The artist himself adds, “The vibes we shared pre-pandemic on our beloved dance-floors inspired me a lot to create Power EP. I tried to focus on effective and highly energetic, peak-time techno weapons for KNTX011. Signature synths, big stabs and kicks following only one formula – no compromise and four to the floor.”

First up is Power, a high octane track with hard drums, slamming bass and bright synths that cannot fail to get hands in the air. The excellent ‘Disconnection’ has laser-like synths shooting across the face of the track while big, edgy trance stabs light up the barreling drums from way up above. ‘Frequency’ is another trance-influenced track that brings peak time energy to stomping and distorted drums. It is an emotive rollercoaster that never lets up and will make a mark on even the biggest dance floors. Last of all is ‘Radioactivity’ which has scuffed metal textures, crashing drums and strobe-lit synth lines that will turn every party into a rave.

This is another all-out techno assault of the highest order from one of the best in the game.
