Respected producer, DJ and sound designer Alex Banks presents his third studio album ‘Projections’, returning to Max Cooper’s Mesh imprint. The work follows up critically acclaimed releases on Modeselektor’s Monkeytown, Ninja Tune, where he remixed Bonobo, and his sublime sophomore album ‘Beneath the Surface’ from 2019.

Produced in his studio in Brighton, UK, the album is an immersive nine-track masterstroke covering the gamut of electronica, techno, breakbeat, bass and IDM, fit for clubs and home-listening alike. The project was born in the early stages of 2021. With little outside stimulation to draw inspiration from, Banks
invested in new gear including a Moog Matriarch, DFAM and a host of Eurorack Modules - and set about immersing himself in the possibilities of his new semi-modular synths. In terms of sonic reference points, he found himself in new territory, too. “Usually going to a club night, or concert, or even the
simple things in life that you take for granted all feed into a melting pot of things that inspire me to create. But without these, I instead found myself drawing on memories of experiences, and imagining new ones for the future to come. I began to feel like these were projections, almost like memories of experiences I had been projecting via the music I was creating,” he shares, adding that memories of clubbing trips to Berlin, London and Brighton fuelled his vision for the album.

Furthermore, the seclusion we collectively experienced allowed Banks to philosophise on the nature of human connection, which fed into the album concept: “I started to think about how during our period of relative isolation, we are all projecting into the digital ether, searching for a connection in an increasingly virtual world where shared human contact and experiences have
become scarce.”

Heavy distortions and gentle sweeps, the second chapter: »tell me more« is AFAR's latest installment on Laut & Luise and a humble announcement of more to come. True to its title, »tell me more« is the proclaimed manifesto of this extended work: The EP itself is followed up by six remixes with broad range, each artist unique in their approach and style. A tale repeatedly told and adjusted by its narrator.

I See A Darkness (Acid Pauli Remix)

“Tzununá” means hummingbird in Mayan, a fitting title for an electronica gem that drifts like a hummingbird in slow motion. With this track DJ Amiga from Tokyo manages to shape a meditative space somewhere between the forest and the club. An ethereal remix by Tiefe Wasser Berlin will follow soon after.

For his latest release, Jake has taken two of his biggest live tracks from recent months. Recorded in single takes, with minimal post production, "Poble Sec" and "Manso" are more or less live recordings. The result is some very spontaneous technology music from the heart. 

Fairmont - Poble Sec

Synthesizers, loops and abstract beats.  These are a few of my favorite things?  I am a strange breed, other worldly, and a super freak.   Cold wave, minimal techno, electro abstract, avant- hard, hardcore techno, break core, IDM, EBM, Death Rock, punk Rock, New Wave,Dark Wave, Ambient, MiamiBootyBase, SpeedBase, Dub, RagaMuffin, Dubstep, Industrial, Noise, Experimental, world beat...did I forget anything?  Neophyte, for sure, and these are all my newly found treasures, that I have dug up from around the world.  One day I will produce some tracks again, until then, I will spend every minute listening to all the newly found gems!

Jake Fairley aka Fairmont is an electronic music producer, live performer and DJ from Toronto, Canada. He began his career in the early 2000s making records under his own name for labels such as Kompakt, Sender and Cocoon. However, it was his 2005 smash-hit Gazebo under his Fairmont pseudonym that solidified him as a heavyweight in the global underground scene. Released on James Holden's Border Community label, Gazebo sold 20,000 vinyl copies and made Fairmont a household name. Since Gazebo Fairmont has released 2 albums and several EPs. Recent releases such as Carthage (MFRR 2016) Shadows Of Mine (Suara 2017) and Brothers Keeper (Bedrock 2018) have been big club hits, getting played by such DJs as Maceo Plex, John Digweed, Sasha, Dixon etc.
