German producer APHE shows his alignment with Shadow Wulf Records as he dives deep into a wolf concept for his latest EP, “The Pack Survives”. Drawing inspiration from popular tv show GoT, APHE focused on the Direwolf theme, sampling the vocal line “the lone wolf dies but the pack survives”, a sample he’d been yearning to use in a track for several years but was waiting for the perfect time. The title track is a minimal, driving track with mystic sounds in which one can imagine a pack of wolves roaming through a forest with the light of a huge, bright, silver moon on a crystal clear night. The chugging rhythm is complemented by a sneaking half-step low synth melody, intricate effects, and eerie pads. 

The second track “Isegrim” is a darker and heavier stomper at first glance but shows APHE’s range with a fragile, melancholic touch as the melody and the brighter sounds appear. Gritty synths bare their teeth and show their strength in this fierce groover.  

The third track “Nymeria” acts as a follow-up to the title track, and advances with a speedier and more aggressive bassline. A progressive melodic rhythm subtly gives energy and is accompanied by dark swelling pads throughout its entirety. This track is on the hunt -- One can almost see the wolves picking up their speed and moving swiftly with intention through the darkness. 

The Pack Survives EP marks APHE’s third release with Shadow Wulf Records, and his first EP with the label. The EP also features 2 remixes from fellow German and techno heavy-hitter Monococ, and Shadow Wulf label boss Aaron Jacobs.
