1. Bring It, 2. Embrace, 3. I Can Feel It, 4. Meta-Emotion, 5. Bring It (Haruka Salt @harukanyc999 Remix)

Released on July 29, 2022.
Buy on Bandcamp: https://fortunesignal.bandcamp.com/album/embrace-ep

Support: Sarah Story (BBC Radio 1), Tom Ravenscroft (BBC Radio 6), Travis Holcombe (KCRW), Franky Rizardo (@frankyrizardo), Joyce Muniz (@joytoy), Holly Lester (@hollylester)

As club music fans, we constantly seek out those special moments of sonic bliss, the moments that help justify staying out well past midnight. The Embrace EP captures the essence of those rave-affirming moments and tips its hat to the pioneers of its trancey 90s underground sound. Making his Fortune Signal debut, LA native @akumenmusic delivers a rave-ready 5-tracker just itching to be unleashed at peak time in a warehouse near you.

For this new release, Akumen has infused his signature house and techno workouts with what he cheekily describes as proto-trance. A tasteful yet potent combination of sonic ingredients, the resulting Embrace EP is a cohesive odyssey full of pumping bass and kicks, mysterious synth melodies, and skittering breakbeats. The release is comprised of Akumen's four original tracks as well as a remix by NYC underground luminary and Toucan Sounds mainstay Haruka Salt. The veteran DJ slaps an exclamation mark on the release with a loopy and deliciously percussive take on “Bring It” that re-awakens your senses for the final dance.

Akumen is a long-time fixture in the LA underground scene and co-runs the Made to Move monthly party and radio show. Working out of his home studio in East LA, Akumen produces "atmospheric, breaky and lush cuts to high octane, full-on-rave" tracks for labels including La Bonne Musique, 12 Inches Deep, Low Recordings and now Fortune Signal.

As club music fans, we constantly seek out those special peak hour moments of sonic bliss, the moments that help justify staying out well past midnight. The Embrace EP captures the essence of those rave-affirming moments and tips its hat to the pioneers of its trancey 90s underground sound. Making his Fortune Signal debut, LA native Akumen delivers a rave-ready 5-tracker just itching to be unleashed at peak time in a warehouse near you. For this new release, Akumen has infused his signature house and techno workouts with what he cheekily describes as ‘proto-trance.’ A tasteful yet potent combination of sonic ingredients, the resulting Embrace EP is a cohesive odyssey full of pumping bass and kicks, mysterious synth melodies, and skittering breakbeats.

Opening track “Bring It” lures the listener in with a hypnotic, elastic bassline before exploding into a cascading synthetic swirl. Its insistent vocal sample is an irresistible call to move your body.

The eponymous “Embrace” ventures further down the rabbit hole with tenacious synth stabs, eventually contronting you with a fully-formed trance moment.

“I Can Feel It” opens with classic organ notes, a nod to Akumen’s house roots. As it draws closer to its apex, the song plucks at your heartstrings with anthemic synth stabs and an evocative, soulful vocal sample.

“Meta-Emotion”, Akumen’s fourth original track, is a mesmerizing dip into the ether. Bass-heavy drum grooves cut through spacious synth arpeggios with driving authority.

To conclude our journey, NYC underground luminary and Toucan Sounds mainstay Haruka Salt slaps an exclamation mark on the release with a loopy and deliciously percussive remix of “Bring It” that re-awakens your senses for the final dance.

Berlin-based collective Cyberflex is making waves in the electronic music scene with their unique sound that draws inspiration from the Detroit techno scene and its originators. Founded by a group of musicians, producers, and artists, Cyberflex brings a fresh and modern take on the classic electro sound.

Says Cyberflex, “This collection of tracks describes a process which starts as a single unit leading to differentiation into several mutually competing units. Each unit will again develop various compartments aiming to achieve balanced singularity within a fractal circuitry.”

Techno And Hardgroove Mix 2

Acid-layered beats and polyrhythmic drums drive over deep subby basses to bring you a guaranteed room rattler, pairing house party attitude with warehouse edge.

This 6-track techno/hard groove EP is serious but also a little careless - like moving so fast you break things (or forgetting to back up your hard drive).

EP is out on January 26th, 2024 on Bandcamp and streaming services.

Acid Camp is excited to announce a new compilation album. The album celebrates the label’s 10 year anniversary with 35 artists—of which 25 are releasing with the label for the very first time.

As the largest release in the record label’s history, Acid Camp: 10 Year Anniversary Compilation dramatically expands upon Acid Camp All Stars Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 (both 2018) with more than triple the number of featured artists. Ten return to the label, including Eric Cloutier and Jeremiah Chiu, while Abby Echiverri, Bézier, Force Placement, and 32 more celebrate their first track with Acid Camp.

From Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, New York, Berlin to Tokyo, the artists represent the breadth of the underground and independent music scenes of the 2020s and underscore the collective strength of Acid Camp’s community since 2013. The release spans dancefloor-forward acid house and techno to ambient, downtempo, and funk selections. Lyrics are cut and collaged; synths are squelched; grooves are grooved.

100% of the album's profits will be donated to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF), founded over 30 years ago in 1991. PCRF is the leading nonprofit organization providing medical care and diverse humanitarian assistance to countless children in the Middle East.

About The Mix:
“I wanted this mix to feature new tracks and releases I am feeling. It is a quick journey through UK Garage, house, and progressive sounds, layering a bit of moodiness and darkness while keeping the energy high and the vibe engaging. It’s a set that’s both deep and dynamic—intense, but never losing its drive.” - Akumen
