Answer Code Request will release his second album in February.
Gens will come out on Ostgut Ton, the label that released Patrick Gräser's full-length debut, Code, in 2014. The Berghain resident has suggested the new LP will be darker and more experimental than his first, whose tracks combined techno and breakbeat.
"For me, the album was a way of finding myself again without relying on other music," said Gräser. "Even to distance myself from other music. The more shadowy mood comes from a place of experimentation, and from my desire to go deeper into the sounds of synths and instruments I've been using, and even faster speeds of around 160 BPM."
Gens is out February 23rd, with the release party set for the following night at Berghain.
