Mutual Rytm 38 review

French talent Hyden makes label debut on Mutual Rytm with conceptual new techno EP, 'To Whom It
May Concern'.
Hyden is a potent force in the French underground, creating powerful techno with dense percussion, immersive
grooves and subtle nods to classic influences - all through his own unique lens. Having delivered standout
releases in recent years, here he offers up sounds "anchored in psychoanalysis, time, and emotional residue" as he
makes his mark on SHDW's Mutual Rytm imprint, delivering influences of dream logic and surrealism as the palette
moves between brutality and introspection. "It's hypnotic music for moments of rupture where something breaks or
breaks through".
Opener 'Manifest Content' is inspired by Freudian theory and explores the surface illusions of thought and dream.
It's about the dissonance between what we perceive and the deeper meaning that slips away beneath and is a deep
and dubby techno track with flashes of unsettling melody. 'Bruises' is emotional trauma made sonic. This piece
delves into invisible scars and traumas, residues of past conflict or intimacy - it's slow-burning, heavy and raw.
'Jikan' is a meditation built on time and its erosion. Inspired by the Japanese concept of impermanence, it reflects
fleeting moments, decay and the tension between stillness and motion with jacked up but warm drums and turbulent
bass.
Next, 'Free Will' is born from inner conflict and plays with deterministic rhythms and evolving layers, questioning
whether we are truly in control or just passengers in a prewritten sequence. The vocal mentions, "creatures, you're
out of time" to bring darkness to the intense but sleek rhythms. The streamlined physicality of 'Swarm' channels the
primal force of collective movement and is a nod to the loss of individuality in group behaviour.
In addition, the package is loaded with digital bonus cuts. 'Yumehara' is a dive into surreal dream-states and evokes
subconscious landscapes where logic dissolves and emotion reigns, while 'Lu Bu' is brutal and warlike and named
after the legendary Chinese general that captures impulsive violence, betrayal and reckless glory with relentless
energy and rhythm. Lastly, 'Neon Pale' is a synthetic dreamscape about fading beauty under artificial light - a
melancholy ode to cities at night and the loss of warmth in modern life.
Hyden 'To Whom It May Concern' lands on Mutual Rytm on 19th September 2025.
