The word “Vril” first appeared in The Coming Race, Edward Bulwer-Lytton’s 1871 novel about a subterranean civilisation. There’s also a theory that it was later adopted by a group of German occultists called The Vril Society. But those with more of an interest in bleak techno than black magic will associate it with another shadowy cabal: the artists of Germany’s Giegling label, whose offshoot, Forum, released this otherwise nameless producer’s debut album, Torus. Vril has also forged his own apocryphal tales: Delsin, who released his second album, claim the 2014 Vortekz EP was so heavy it caused the mastering machinery to crash. It’s a story you’re more likely to believe after listening to Portal, an album that makes you feel like you’re being dragged deep into the bowels of the Earth.

Cranked right up, these tracks have real elemental force. The unforgiving stomp of “Portal 1” sounds like it could have come from the Cretaceous period as much as early ’90s Berlin, and the album as a whole seems as monolithic as a slab of stone. Sometimes it’s a bit too cold: “Portal 6” might make you feel like you’re repeatedly smacking a brick wall. Yet much as the vril inThe Coming Race was a liquid with magical powers, so Vril can create real marvels when he bends some of the more rigid structures and lets things flow, as he does on “Portal 3,” where melodic stabs carve space around whip-cracking percussion. Vril’s talent for making something fluid out of solid sounds is best displayed on “Portal 7,” where a track that begins murky and fogbound eventually opens up into something echoing, cavernous and vast.

It’s that sense of scale that makes moments of Portal near-sublime. It needs powerful speakers to really do it justice, and even then, many might regard these tracks as little more than the bedrock for a remorseless techno set. But the crushing heat and pressure Vril brings to his productions means that, in the right hands at the right times, this music can feel as thrilling, fiery and dangerous as dancing on hot coals.
