- About Safar Collective

Safar Collective - a multidisciplinary art community, est. 2021 - was formed on the idea of exploration through experimentation. Our shared love for leftfield and esoteric guided us through 3 closed group experiments in the past that culminated in our prior compilations.

With the release of this VA, we are transitioning into a left-field label with the vision of building an ecosystem that nurtures leftfield artists and showcases unconventional art.

- Perceptions I

'Perceptions I' journeys across different realms from drum and bass to broken beats through glitch-hop while continually inhabiting a progressive space that breathes novelty and inventiveness. Each composition feels alive, supple, and evolving.

We invite the listeners for a deep dive into the VA to unravel the ineffable and experience the raw emotions firsthand.

- Safar and friends

Alongside artists from within Safar, 'Perceptions I' includes notable artists from the Indian underground, from the likes of I7HVN, Watashi, Rafiki, Audio Units, Flux Vortex, and Shantam. We hope to carve our sweet niche with them in the Indian underground.

PREMIERE : Rafiki - Untitled Breaks

The night was young but already the music was loud as they drove further and further away from the city and into the countryside. Soon it would be dark and they’d begin the hunt. It was the same skit every weekend, the same places and faces looking for fun on the outskirts of town.

This old car had miles under its belt, it had been to fields and warehouses all over the South coast in the search of dancing and delight.

It was the hunter itself, powered only by the mischief of its passengers.

Retromigration channels elements of House, Trance and beyond on a fast and furious new EP for Handy Records. However, beneath the pace sits a deep rooted groove which can be hard to place without careful consideration and handling. This is a producer in top form.

All tracks are born out of hardware jam sessions and are characterised by driving rhythms and pulsating baselines showcasing their unique take on four-to-the-floor grooves. Helle aimed to create a genre-ascending EP combining their love for techno, dub, and breaks, resulting in this extraordinary collection of tracks.

Versatile producer, DJ and pioneer member of the Parisian Collective HORS-SOL, Germain CLS is on the hunt for harmonies blending progressive and efficient sounds with fundamentally danceable beats. 

Germain’s debut solo EP on 39 Records is a dance floors communication toolbox restructuring essential 90s rave elements into a trance and progressive fusion.

Opening track, « The Bass » is a key  component of the The Tools EP, as it is a key element of the track itself. Oscillating between frequencies and filters the bass line is twisted but ubiquitous, pulsating relentlessly.

In French, "Bon Voyage" expresses good wishes to someone about to embark on a journey. 

Calling from Mars(eille), french producer Ndlss Seumar, a fresh newcomer who brings us summer before the hour, delivers four proggy, trance-oriented tracks. From energetic vibes to more dreamy but powerful melodies, the four tunes are brimming with emotion. 

'You Butter Be Bready', is like having French toast for breakfast- sweet house vibes with joyful stabs that provide the necessary energy for the coming day.
From there, the rest of the EP takes a psychedelic turn. 'Bon Voyage' makes us blast off, with its acid sounds and syncopated synth, towards Venus or 'The Sister Planet'. For this third track, heat increases, the bpm accelerates, the resonant textures mix to form a mind-bending groove. The last tune, 'Stompy Yeezy', is like landing, the first steps in a new environment. The deep and heavy bass plays with more melancholic melodies as if to say goodbye.

Fasten your seat belts and prepare to take off on this cosmic trip with us.

PREMIERE: Ndlss Seumar - The Sister Planet
