Akuratyde makes a bold and deeply personal statement with Inviting Chaos. The album explores the beautiful disorder of parenthood and the emotional complexities of intentionally inviting upheaval into your life. Marking his solo debut on Bop’s renowned Microfunk imprint, it reframes his signature sound into something brighter and more unpredictable.

There’s a sense of personal evolution woven throughout, from dancefloor-friendly rhythms to sparse microfunk beats, the album moves fluidly between styles, revealing a new facet of his sound. More than just a sonic shift, Inviting Chaos captures an emotional truth rarely expressed in electronic music: how deeply life changes when you willingly step into the unknown.

Akuratyde - Head First (Into Chaos)

Taken from 'Gradient LP': microfunk.bandcamp.com/album/gradient-lp

Nuage emerges with a tantalising collection of 2-step tear-jerkers on his latest album 'Gradient' releasing via Microfunk Music on September 19th.

For over a decade, Nuage has built a reputation as one of electronic music’s most emotive voices, with celebrated releases on Project Mooncircle, Anjunadeep, 20/20 Vision, and Phonica Records, and regular radio support from BBC Radio 1. Following the vibrant Music of Branches (Absys, 2013), the lushly introspective Prints of You (Translation, 2014), and the genre-bending WILD (Project Mooncircle, 2017), Gradient marks a natural next step, refining his signature blend of moody synths, floating melodies, and broken 2-step rhythms into something intimate, ethereal, and timeless.

Each track on Gradient feels like a precious gem, balancing restraint and atmosphere with a subtle pull toward the dancefloor. UKG-inspired grooves set the foundation for much of the record, carrying Nuage’s trademark weightless touch. “Pausepoint” stands out as a highlight, where Nuage teams up with Microfunk Music label head Bop to push the tempo into drum & bass territory, providing a dynamic counterpoint to the album’s meditative flow. The surrounding tracks lean into hazy textures and shimmering percussion that unfold like half-remembered dreams.

Over the years, Nuage has become known for crafting electronic music that feels as personal as it is expansive, soundtracks for both solitary reflection and communal release. Gradient distills that duality, offering a record that is as much about listening as it is about movement, carried by a rare sensitivity to atmosphere and rhythm.
