Review by Kelly Figueroa-Ray

Afva005: A Swiss Techno Slugfest That’ll Rattle Your Skull Let’s cut to the chase—Afva005 by Various isn’t some polished, overhyped EDM cash grab. Nah, this is raw, unfiltered techno straight outta Switzerland in 2016, courtesy of Act-fact Records. Genre? Electronic. Styles? Techno, Minimal Techno, Tech House. It’s a no-bullshit ride for anyone who likes their beats dark, driving, and dripping with grit. First up, "Capadonna." This track slaps so hard it feels like someone clocked you in the face—but in a good way, ya know? The bassline grinds like a rusty machine while these eerie synths creep in from nowhere. You’re not just listening; you’re feeling it. Like, holy crap, I still hear that damn loop in my head days later. It’s hypnotic but aggressive, perfect for losing yourself on a dimly lit dancefloor or maybe smashing stuff in your garage (no judgment here). Then there’s “Reflecting Lights,” which flips the script entirely. Where “Capadonna” punches you in the gut, this one sneaks up behind you like a ninja. The groove builds slow, all moody and atmospheric, until BAM—it drops into this tech-house banger that makes you wanna move whether you’re sober or not. The hi-hats are sharp as hell, and those subtle melodic tweaks halfway through? Absolute filth. It sticks with you because it doesn’t try too hard—it just works. Now, don’t get me wrong, the other tracks ain’t trash. Tracks like “Used To” and “Go More A” bring their own heat, but they don’t hit quite as hard as the first two I mentioned. Still solid though—no skips, no filler. If anything, the whole album feels like a killer DJ set stitched together by someone who knows what they’re doing. Here’s the kicker: Afva005 came out back in 2016, and yet it hits harder than half the garbage flooding Spotify playlists today. Maybe that says something about how fickle we’ve become, chasing trends instead of substance. Or maybe it’s proof that Switzerland does more than cheese and watches—they crank out bangers too. So yeah, if you’re tired of cookie-cutter beats and need something real, grab this album. Just don’t blame me when your neighbors start complaining about the noise.
