KLINT — Pigment EP

Klint – Pigment EP arrives on Planet Rhythm as catalogue PRRUKBLK141, a 12-inch orange vinyl that slots neatly into the label’s 2026 techno output. Issued on 27 November 2026, the EP continues the label’s forward-looking aesthetic, offering a compact set of four tracks that explore shifting tonal palettes within a club-ready framework. Within Planet Rhythm’s 2026 roster, Pigment EP follows a series of releases that have cemented the imprint’s reputation for kinetic techno. Earlier in the year the label delivered Mython’s “Hertsmere Road EP” (PRRUKBLK158) and the “House Nation EP” (90GRVZ003), as well as Klint’s own “Roses & Revolt EP” (PRRUKBLK163). The EP also sits alongside Hioll’s two-part “Zero Gravity EP” (PRRUKBLK166P1/P2) and the collaborative “Common Ground EP” by Greyn & Tièmoko Koné (PRRUKBLK164), forming a cohesive snapshot of the label’s spring-to-summer output. Side A opens with “Pigment”, a title that hints at a spectrum of sound. The track establishes a steady, driving pulse that serves both as a floor-filler and as a springboard for the subsequent cut. “Remote”, placed as A2, picks up the momentum, offering a slightly more restrained groove that complements the opener while maintaining the EP’s kinetic thread. Side B begins with “Hate Chords”, a piece that introduces a darker tonal shift, creating tension that can be exploited for peak-time transitions. The final cut, “Inglorious”, resolves the set with a broader, more expansive atmosphere, providing DJs with a versatile closing statement that can either wind down a set or segue into deeper terrain. Klint’s recent discography on Planet Rhythm includes the “Roses & Revolt EP” (PRRUKBLK163) and the “Horus & Seth EP” (PRRUKBLK116), both of which share a similar commitment to stripped-back yet potent techno structures. Earlier releases on other imprints, such as the “Cheetah LP” on KOWBOI RECORDS (KWBVNL001) and the “Versus 002” on Mutual Rytm (MRV002), demonstrate the producer’s range across the underground spectrum, making Pigment EP a logical continuation of a consistently focused aesthetic. In the current underground climate, where concise, well-crafted techno EPs are prized for their immediacy, Pigment EP offers a succinct yet varied listening experience. Its four tracks provide enough contrast to keep a set dynamic without overstaying their welcome, making the record a useful addition for DJs seeking both rhythmic drive and subtle shifts in mood. From a collector’s perspective, the orange vinyl format adds a visual cue that distinguishes the release within a busy crate. The 12-inch size ensures ample groove space for the low-frequency content typical of techno, while the straightforward pressing aligns with the label’s reputation for reliable, high-quality vinyl.
