Moon Dancing

Bringing the rhythms of the natural world to the modern dance floor, Liquid Bloom and PERE unite their distinct musical backgrounds into the immersive story called ‘Afar.’ Presented in eight vivid tracks that infuse organic instruments and ancient songs with the trance-inducing energy of progressive electronica, the collection highlights each artist’s deep passion for the sounds of the world as well as their iconic approaches to musical storytelling in the digital age.

Opening the album, the journey of “Nubra” takes us through deep ambient spaces, percussive grooves, and the elegant and haunting tones of the sarangi and dotar, establishing a balance of organic and digital elements that pervades the collection. Stepping further into this hypnotic space, tracks like “Overgrown” and “Riding Through” showcase the fiery side of the album, merging acoustic instrumentation with heavier electronic themes that are primed for peak moments on the dance floor.

“Kingfisher” featuring Australian multi-instrumentalist Si Mullumby demonstrates the duo’s creative mixing of natural sounds and instruments for a walkabout into the wilderness, while “Pájaro Azul’s” uplifting balance of charango, flute, and tranquil vocals courtesy of Isla Espiral spotlights the Latin American musical influences at play in the collection. “Ufawatu” featuring African music master Chris Berry is a playful song that translates as ‘the dream of life in the sacred waters.’ Japanese vocalist Madi Sato guides the album out of the wildness with the emotional and cinematic ‘Lion Dance’ anthem that is “Azuma Jishi.”

If ‘Afar’ opens slowly, the final track, “Refuge,” ends like glowing embers of Samadhi, echoing and honoring the immense passage of emotion that has transpired through PERE and Liquid Bloom's offerings. The full effect of the duo’s musical fusion is best felt here, where the recognizable coalesces with the imaginary in a cinematic coda that displays each producer’s alchemical approach to psychedelic sound design and guides the album back into the silence from which it all emerged.

𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐄𝐑𝐄: Ivory Coats - At the Risk of Being Human [M-Sol DEEP]

Haze [Minimal Groove Concept]

An atmospheric and deep house track where modern sound intertwines with the soul of Slavic culture.

A musical journey in which groove and rhythm become guides to a world of enchanting mysticism and timeless history. Through the energetic beat emerges the eternal spirit of ancient shores, while the female vocals echo the very voice of nature, filled with light and hope.

*Along the steep riverbank 
A kind maiden walks 
Along the steep riverbank 
She brings good news with her*

These lines evoke the image of a radiant traveler, carrying good tidings through the ages. The melody and rhythm of the track seem to reflect her movement along the winding shore—from contemplation to joy, from depth to dance.

It is an invitation into a world where past and present merge in a single flow of energy, and music becomes a bridge between tradition and modernity. Immerse yourself in this track and feel the magic of the Slavic soul.

Bellhop - Owl Creek

A journey through my reflection of fear
After years of accumulating compositions and not mustering the courage to release my creations, I pondered the deepest reasons for not doing so. I honed it down to one simple realisation...I was scared. Scared of failure, scared of what others may of thought, scared of comparison and self judgement...But most of all I was afraid to release the best version of myself..."Our greatest Fear is not that we are inadequate...our greatest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure"...So to meet this power I concepted my creations as me releasing my fear...challenging my fear...embracing and harnessing my fear - "It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us"
I chose to embrace my dark and accept my light. This EP is a statement of true acceptance and as my first release I hope it can inspire others to shine their light and not be afraid. 

Bass-rich pulses with both organic and electronic tones, fused with my undying love of cinematic movement, these compositions are a journey through my love of tribal rhythms, transcendent sonic knowledge and dirty dubby earth shattering beats...My objective is to make people move and be moved.

If you've found this...thank you...Plenty more journeys to come from Formacions <3
