Three years after its first self-titled and sold-out release, ABOP is delivering a new LP (aka Delta). Several years in the making, new tracks were debuted, tested and rearranged in front of the audience (a common practice among DJs which ABOP musicians adopted.) △ will be released on Nov 30th 2019 by PDV, one of the most prolific regional indie record labels. Album will be available on vinyl, CD and as a digital release, in all relevant streaming and download stores. 

△ was announced in 2018 following the release of the band’s first video for the song Right Now. Music video was made as a stop motion animation, directed by Katrin Novakovic. ABOP’s light designer Andrija Santro (Bamwise) was in charge of the lighting. Video was featured in numerous animated film festivals and music video festivals: the most famous one being Berlin Music Video Awards 2019 where the band performed. Two songs from the album, are well known to local and international audiences: The Flash of Golden Fire and Mind Manifest. The album, however, contains studio recordings of these two songs.

“A-side” of the vinyl brings us two epic synth hymns: Straight Flow and De Laurentiis. The latter is dedicated to the famous Italian film producer. Dino De Laurentiis produced numerous movies, but two ofthem resonate with the band far more than the others: Flash Gordon and Dune. The track was premiered last year during the Ambasador award ceremony. (Ambasador is a Croatian music award that recognizes achievements in electronic music scene.) The year before, ABOP was presented with an Ambasador award for the best electronic music band.

After the EP release in 2016 and spectacular promo party in Zagreb, the band went on a European tour. ABOP is a band that has many miles under its belt – they played in Austria, Italy, Hungary, Slovakia, Germany, Belgium, France, Czech Republic and Bulgaria. ABOP played major regional festivals like EXIT, Dimensions and Terraneo, but also numerous clubs where the vibe is more intense.

ABOP consists of two drummers Ivan Levacic (ELEVEN, Kries, Chui) and Ivan Vodopijec (Elemental), bass player Erol Zejnilovic (Elemental, Kries), Ivan Bozanic (Pips. Chips & Videoclips) on digital synths and Bogumil Kulaga on analog and digital synths.

△ features mandatory Roland TB-303, Future Retro 777 and Access Virus TI. Drums were recorded by ABOP sound engineer Igor Ivankovic (Bamwise) in Studio Depth. Bass guitar and synths were recorded by Ivan Bozanic in Dan, Mrak Studio. Album was mixed and mastered by Croatian techno trailblazer Petar Dundov in Neumatik Studio. Visuals and album art were designed by Ante Zvonimir Stamac.
