avas' debut ep 'data' was born in her bedroom, yet designed to be played out in the club. The 22-year-old Chicago-based Avelina DeCandia, known to her friends as Ava, has been meticulously constructing club-ready tracks and dj tools over the past couple years while drifting to and from Minneapolis, Chicago and Vancouver, BC. 'data' embraces the euphoria of club music, it beckons listeners to surrender to its immersive experience, best enjoyed amidst the throbbing bass and communal energy of a colossal sound system.

Each track within 'data' pulsates with a refined, stripped-down sound that looks toward the future, enveloped by resonant kick drums and dreamy soundscapes that evoke nostalgia for early "deconstructed club" music and its influences from jersey club, ballroom, trap, chicago house and techno.

The EP features collaborations from Auckland, NZ-based vocalist, producer and club music visionary 'jhl' (Soul Feeder, Tabula Rasa) and Chicago-based experimental pop darling and frequent collaborator 'plastic pet' (Deskpop, Unseelie) who both lend their vocals and production to the mix.

As avas' debut offering, 'data' is an embodiment of the unity and collaboration felt throughout electronic music that transcends geographical boundaries whether there be either thousands of miles or just a couple feet between.

MIRACLE REFLEXXX

Within the span of a year, Tallinn-based club night series and creative collective Shelter has managed to rally dozens of electronic musicians from all corners of the world to an unexpected meeting point by the Baltic Sea. By curating club nights that showcase local talents aside some of the brightest minds in electronic music today, Shelter has undeniably played a significant role in revitalizing Tallinn’s club scene.

More importantly, Shelter uses its platform to shed light on some of the worst humanitarian crises currently plaguing our planet. Beyond covering event costs, ticket sales proceeds from Shelter Showcase events have been directed to organizations who provide resources to those in need, including the Ottawa Black Diaspora Coalition in Ukraine and the Rebuilding Alliance in Palestine.

To celebrate 1 year of building bridges between communities and incubating forward-thinking electronic music, Shelter presents Feyrûse: a compilation album featuring 17 tracks by an intercontinental melting pot of musicians, majority of whom have graced the dancefloors of Shelter.

Feyrûse aims to capture increasing unity within the global electronic music community. The musical styles represented on the album are as varied as its diverse cast of artists, ranging from purpose-built hybrid club to serene and blissful melodic rituals.

Late night feeling like a rockstar
Next day i feel like a loner
Well, it cuts into the bone when i know it's over
They say that i won't go far
In being a rock and roller
Well, the dog days disappear when it's over

Late night feeling like a rockstar
Next day i feel like a loner
Well, it cuts into the bone when i know it's over
They say that i won't go far
In being a rock and roller
Well, the dog days disappear when you're older

Late night feeling like a rockstar
Next day i feel like a loner
Well, it cuts into the bone when i know it's over
They say that i won't go far
In being a rock and roller
Well, the dog days disappear when you're dead

When I hear you scream for me and say my name
In a couple years of time, will you remember mine?
In a couple hundred lifetimes, will you pay it up (pay it up)
On my grave and will you throw your roses into mine
When I ask to throw your hands will you throw it up? (throw it up)
When I'm asking you to dance, will you throw it back?
When I ask you to forget, will you let it go?
When I open the pit, will you lose control?

A dormant engine stirs, kissed awake by the ghosts of an old friend

Way back, before Audio Bambino, @rooots-montreal was creating some of our favorite club tracks. Today, we're thrilled to unveil two unreleased bangers from that era. Lost on an old hard drive but finally seeing the light of day!
