At first listen, the Latin-influenced rhythms of “Maze” is enough to enchant this driving techno house blender, but it’s the following listens that can pay an even greater reward. Channeling mid-00’s Kompakt-era of melodic techno, Russian-based Nightdrive combines the bending synth stabs with crisp hi-hat spirals into dancefloor bliss.
