Alinka Returns to Rekids with her latest EP ‘I’m Your Ghost’.

Following the relaunch of her label Twirl alongside Shaun J. Wright, Alinka now brings her brand new EP 'I'm Your Ghost' to Radio Slave's Rekids. Having made frequent appearances within its catalogue, her 'I'm Your Ghost' EP sees the Ukranian-born, Chicago-raised and Berlin-residing producer return with four eclectic and club-orientated house tracks. These will sit amongst her previous releases on Permanent Vacation, Needwant, HE.SHE.THEY and Crosstown Rebels. 

“This EP is a dedication to Chicago, and all the "teachers" that made me fall in love with House Music. They're tracks for the dance floor. I wrote them for the people who are too busy dancing to stare at the DJ.” - Alinka 

'Teachers' is the first cut presented on 'I'm Your Ghost' with its sharp percussive layers building towards the well-honed grooves in its composition. Title-track 'I'm Your Ghost' punches through next with weighty, wobbling subs placed against a catchy lead. 'I Still Believe' is featured with rising chord progressions and pounding kicks as '909 Lives' draws the EP to a close with an intricate mix of synths and striding drum work, paying homage to its title. It’s a package highlighting why Alinka is on an unstoppable rise, with support from some of the biggest names across house music.

It is a well-known fact that the rings on some tropical trees can inform scientists about turning points in human history. And likewise, one can find and read the history of the Ukrainian electronic scene among the copies of records in the archives of the vinyl label Artreform. The needle drops, the record starts spinning, and as it revolves, one finds themselves moving on the legendary Heaven dancefloor, once described in Laurent Garnier’s Electroshock. Local crowd favorite DJ JOSS puts on his recently written killer acid track "Well Placed Trust," remixed by Israeli producer Chaim. The first record in the Artreform catalog is playing…

From one release to another, one can hear how tech house and house music have changed over the years. How club sensations of the 2010s went explosive (Boom Boom Room, L8 Park, Mantra); how Ostrov Festival was developing, and stars from Kyiv, Odesa, and Kharkiv established their presence on the musical map… To the present-day charity events at КУРЕНІ. Artreform music has always been played at those parties and within those walls.

Today, as they’re confidently approaching their landmark 50th vinyl release, label boss Jennie JOSS and his team are still full of desire to release and promote their favorite music. The label’s catalog already includes an all-star crew of local artists: IO, Harris, Outstrip, KiRiK, Raru, Silat Becksi, Alex Pervukhin, Rayo, Fedo, and JOSS’ self-produced releases. The internationals are as impressive as the local back catalog, including Robot Needs Oil, Frank Lorber, Christian Burkhardt, Daniel Stefanik, Djebali, Magnus Asberg, Priku, Mihai Popoviciu, Bushwacka!, Franco Cinelli, Tom Clark, Benno Blome. 

This roster is likely to be expanded with new intriguing names. Judging by how engaged the label is in defending the spirit of freedom in its homeland, Ukraine, there can be no doubt that the imprint is privy to some exceptional plans for the future.
