Releases

Opening the summer season in style, Phenomena welcomes Elias Erium back to the label for a new EP. With the March release of ‘Harvester’, the Canadian artist returned in resounding fashion. Picking up on the themes and sounds which established the label, the two-track showcase was a prime example of the Montreal resident’s creative attitude, winning over tastemaker duo Mind Against and ultimately setting the course for the May release of ‘The Grove’. With projects for long-standing ethereal imprint Steyoyoke and Eleatics subsidiary Aletheia Recordings already in the books for 2022, Elias now returns to his comfortable home of ‘Phenomena’ with a two-track showcase entitled ‘Sleepwalking’. 

Beginning the title selection, Elias explores haunted minimalism and disparate motifs over militant beats and machine gun rhythms. A commanding dance floor presence is furthered by alien-like bleeps and panoramic arps, while percussive rides and flurries of effects transfer energy into the main break. Building tension across the near two-minute centrepiece, a dystopian style ecstasy is evoked, as emerging modulation and esoteric chord changes collapse under their own gravity, giving way to horn-like drones for a prophetic finale.

The companion piece ‘Taking You Back’ rounds out the release with a confident club energy. Elias’ penchant for dance floor dynamics is revealed through dark rebounding rhythms, phasing noise and quirky electronics, all cleverly programmed over a funked up, hip swinging groove. Snatches of ghostly vocals highlight the main break, bringing icy refrains and elastic-like arps along for the ride, eventually revealing a colourful vortex and commanding groove-centric conclusion. With the ‘Sleepwalking’ EP Elias carefully balances a timeless techno inspired mentality with futuristic technical vision, resulting in a two-track showcase that arrives just in time for the summer festival season.

Elias Erium - Taking You Back (Original Mix)

Presenting their first ever collaborative project, Elias Erium and Monarke land on Phenomena with ‘Transcend’. Canadian artist and Phenomena label boss Elias Erium has enjoyed a triumphant return this year. Projects for Eleatics subsidiary Aletheia Recordings and long-standing Berlin imprint Steyoyoke set the stage for three well-received Phenomena EPs, with tastemaker favorites John Digweed, Mind Against and more being steadfast supporters along the way. Meanwhile, fellow Canadian artist Monarke has also had a remarkable year. A contribution to Atlant’s popular Voyager III collection was preceded by a string of releases for Steyoyoke, along with remix projects for Opengate Society and Us & Them. Now pairing for the first time, Eilas and Monarke combine their extensive forces on the much anticipated ‘Transcend’. 

Pitched somewhere comfortably between shadowy monochromes and wintry hinterlands, its warm machine gun style groove and flickering percussive arrangements marry perfectly with percolating effects and prophetic arps. Coming to full fruition during the second act, the duo’s creative attitude is on full display, as striking chord stabs emerge, conjuring up prophetic imagery, while remaining undeniably infectious against a backdrop of shapeshifting textures and balmy overlays, onwards to a spirited finale. Equally at home above a festival skyline or sitting in the sweet spot of a main room set, its deeper design and thought-provoking atmospherics provide a much-needed dance floor curveball for the more adventurous selectors out there.

Following on from the success of ‘Transcend’, Elias Erium returns to Phenomena with his Fragmented EP . ‘Connected’ sits as a perfect complement with its swing heavy cadence and dynamic dance floor appeal. Chugging beats and charged grooves set the foundation for fuzzed out stabs, arpeggiated fragments and clusters of claps to work their magic leading into the break. Opening up further across an expansive interlude, percolating sonics and phasing effects unite for a slow dramatic build, eventually culminating in a nostalgic crescendo and a retro-radiant finale. It rounds out a welcome return to Phenomena for label boss Elias Erium, an artist who furthers his place amongst the world’s rising melodic house and techno producers with ‘Fragmented’.

Premiere: Elias Erium - Fragmented [Phenomena]

The companion piece from the Wander EP ‘The Place Where We Are Free’ lands with an equally impressive display of craftsmanship. Enticing from the start, its billowing groove excites with a monolithic pulse. Inventive percussive arrangements and astral sonics steal the air, as flashing vocals and a contemporary tonal theme take centrestage leading into the break. Emotion peaks as the interlude unfolds, with nostalgic chord changes and elastic-like bass modulation marrying for memorable moments, onwards to a heady conclusion.

Elias Erium - The Place Where We Are Free (Original Mix)

Aimed squarely at a peak hour dance floor, EP opener ‘Wander’ finds Elias composing with a strong sense of space. The Canadian artist masterfully marries trance-inducing rhythms and striking percussion with punchy beats and rolling grooves. An array of haunting vocals and arpeggiated fragments unite across the first act, adding texture and depth leading into the main break. Cavernous in scope, the interlude continues to elevate tension, with fuzzed out modulation creating anticipatory moments, before a slow deliberate build eventually reveals an arcane finale.

Release Info: 
Presenting their second release of the year, Phenomena welcomes Elias Erium back to the label for a new EP. With 2022 on record as the Canadian artist's most prolific year to date, the Montreal resident and Phenomena label boss would begin 2023 with 'Wander'. Released in February, the two-track showcase saw a further evolution in sound for Elias, as he continued on an explorative path under the melodic house and techno umbrella. A broader, more timeless approach without losing focus on the dancefloor would win over the likes of Mind Against and Nick Warren. Now, following a well received remix of Blake Walker's 'The Highlands', Elias returns to his Phenomena imprint with a two-track showcase entitled 'Break The Silence'.

As the techno rhythms and riding percussion of opener 'Break The Silence' unfold, it's clear that Elias' craft is continuing to evolve. Muscular basslines and punchy beats cleverly co-ax with astral hooks and deconstructed vocals, as an epic wave of sonic energies takes shape. The Canadian allows the nine-minute journey to build patiently, exploring all paths for its prophetic design qualities, and ultimately carrying the listener away on a cosmic pilgrimage. Coming to full fruition across the main break, it's a collage of cutting edge synth swagger and devilish effects which serves to elevate tension and mood, tailor made for a magical dancefloor moment, and perfectly setting the stage for a thunderous drop and thumping finale.

Beneath the powerful tidal waves of 'Break The Silence' lies the hyperventilating helium rush of 'The Machine'. Presenting a confident club energy from the start, Elias' recalibrated sonics, metallic hooks and robotized vocals blanket a crunchy rhythmic framework. With an infectious energy that could win over even the most discerning of heads, Erium pulls from his expansive repertoire, infusing hopeful overlays with retro effects and commanding grooves for the ultimate dancefloor rush to close the EP out in style. Highly recommended.

Elias Erium - The Machine (Original Mix)

Pre-order https://www.beatport.com/release/sol/4218021

Previously known as Solid Stone, Phenomena label boss Elias Erium celebrates the label's five-year anniversary with special five track EP ‘Echoes’, a project which tactfully ties his roots of Solid Stone with the  contemporary sounds of his new moniker Elias Erium. Early supporters of his new project include Adriatique, Mind Against and Nick Warren new chapter of Eilas’ career. 

‘Sol’ is exactly the kind of confounding starting point that an Erium project seems to relish in; one with a newly sprawling, saga-like story to tell. Unique in design and execution; its punchy kick drums, cross-cultural musicality and balmy, character-rich motifs maintain a sense of urgency, but also soul, and with a storyboard filled with fire-starting spontaneity, it’s a creation that astute dancefloors will certainly appreciate. 

‘Echoes’ sees its official release on November 15th

Premiere: Elias Erium - Master Frequency

‘Generation’ finds Elias flexing his studio repertoire with a deep timeless techno narrative. Tight, compact and bursting with ultrasonic energies, the track’s first movement is built around dubbed out chord stabs and deconstructed vocals which carry energy into the main break. Erium's creative attitude shines across the interlude, with effervescent arps and fuzzed out synth swagger cleverly coaxing, eventually revealing a darker monochrome, one which pushes onwards to a finale that is equal parts prophetic and cosmic.

@eliaserium

Elias Erium - Generation

Beneath the astral qualities of ‘Generation’ lies the paranoid realities of ‘Point Blank’. As an apt barometer of where Elias’ headspace is at, it’s a framework of bulbous kick drums which lay the foundation for gritty percussion and devilish effects to continue the shadowy tone set by its predecessors. Energies shift and emotion rises as the interlude takes shape, with gaseous atmospheres and looping vocals tastefully building tension towards a finale of burly grooves and metallic melodies.

@eliaserium

Elias Erium - Point Blank

Rounding out the release are the hard hypnotic qualities of ‘Construct’. Looking to bring greater depth to his portfolio, Elias flexes the techno-inspired side of his studio repertoire here, with a slow-burning quality where pneumatic energy and hyperbolic arps cruise into a timeless breakdown. Pitch-bending themes work in perfect unison across a glowing backdrop as the interlude evolves, shapeshifting forward into a forest of dystopian stabs, for a stomping finale to cap off the release on thunderous note.

@eliaserium

Follow the Signal

Elias Erium - Construct

Beginning with ‘Follow the Signal’ Elias puts a firm focus on the dance floor which sets the tone for the EP. Full of rejuvenating energies, the Montreal resident expertly blends robust kick drums and electric grooves with crunchy rhythms and orbiting effects. Roboticized vocals steal the air leading into the break, casting a darker monochrome over the journey, before a sensory expanding build cues a rush of main room alchemy.
