In the press release to promote Ulysses' latest EP on The Bunker NYC, the producer muses at length on the definition of techno, and his desire to break the rules. So, while opener "How Does It Feel To Feel" bears many of the hallmarks of experimental, industrial-tinged techno - dark noises, throbbing kick-drum patterns, distorted electronics, and so on - it weighs in at a house-friendly 121 beats per minute. "Object Of Interest" moves further away from techno's "safe space", with intergalactic electronics and bubbling synthesizer stabs riding an out-there, IDM inspired broken rhythm. As for "The Mascara Snake", it sounds like the sort of long lost, slowed-down Japanese synth-pop jam that many would consider "Balearic".
