Arrival

bathed in bliss

New Dawn on Mars captures the raw experience of humanity's first decades on the Red Planet, blending harsh ambient soundscapes with hopeful electronic melodies that mirror the settlers' struggle to create life in Mars' unforgiving environment. The album's use of granular synthesis and processed field recordings from actual Mars rovers creates an authentic sonic portrait of life under the rust-colored sky.

Ballad of an Interplanetary Species

Ackerman's debut EP on Play Pal opens with the high-octane title track, "More & Faster"—a dynamic mix of mid-paced percussion, syncopated arpeggios, robotic vocals, and sharp snares.

Next up is "Time Machine," a moody, synth-driven track that offers psychedelic dark grooves, punctuated by stuttering vocals and 303s.

Meanwhile, "Can We Rewind Time" stomps forward with a heavy bassline and pulsating sound waves, building to a fiery climax.

Adding depth to the release are label friends and frequent Play Pal contributors Mufti, Leonor and TYU, each bringing their unique stamps to the originals.

Mufti’s rework of "More & Faster" strips back the original, retaining the hypnotic mantra, while adding new layered synth lines that heighten the tension throughout the track.

Leonor’s darker take on "Time Machine" introduces a menacing funk, complete with a tempo-slowing breakdown before the latin vocal (a personal addition of his), kicks back in with force.

TYU rounds off Ackerman's kinetic collection with his signature blend of percussive acid bubbling, congas, and 303s, delivering an electrifying finish to the EP.
