Flabaire’s third album draws the attention away from the dancefloor with ambient psychedelic tunes.
In his own words:
“These tracks are live improvisations that have been recorded during the worldwide lockdown of 2020 and are an expression of what I felt then, during a few weeks where time seemed to have slowed down.”

(OUT ON D.KO RECORDS) Flabaire - Biblife - D.KO01

As we move through the year, the time comes for another addition to the Selected Timbres guest to showcase the goods. This month I had the pleasure of welcoming co-owner of D.KO Records, Flabaire. Through my exploration of the musical landscape I discovered the Parisian artist and his label and immediately fell in love. Not only his he producing top tier deep house tunes, he recently started a band called Aboukir which focuses on the more somber melodies in alternative styles (WHICH I LOVE).

Every time I've had any interaction with Flabaire, there was nothing but mutual respect and kindness shared between us, and I've really loved supporting his music and the label. With this in mind, I was super happy to have him on as a guest for my series, and as always, feel free to ask for any ID's in the comments! Happy listening :)

Release Text:
Cyphon Recordings welcome DJ, producer, musician, and D.KO co-owner Flabaire for the fourth outing on the label. At just 29, the Parisian artist - real name Ralph Maruani - already has a fair share of victories under his belt. On his acclaimed D.KO imprint, which will celebrate its 10th anniversary this year, he’s released three albums and several EPs, as well as charting releases for Organic-Music, Deeppa Records and South Street. On top of his solo pursuits, you can find him playing bass with five-piece house band Secret Value Orchestra, and more recently he’s been exploring his formative love of psych-rock with his Aboukir project and readying a second album.

For his next solo EP, he brings his beautifully affecting and nostalgic blend of electro, IDM, and deep house to Cyphon. If there’s one thing Flabaire knows a thing or two about, it’s creating music that’s full of emotion and atmosphere, and that’s exactly what he does on ‘Entre-Deux’. Wasting no time pulling at heartstrings, on opener ‘In Between’ he layers an electro drum beat over lush pads that beckon an iridescent synth line to rise up out of the haze. At the half-way mark a cowbell swings into action and the pads swell and glisten, making way for a squelchy 303 to bubble underneath the surface. ‘No Minding’ moves into softer realms, giving us a moment for contemplation. A serene blend of deep house and electronica, it’s paced by a warm bass bounce and shuffling percussion sprinkled with chopped vocal samples and bright keys.

Flabaire’s bass mastery continues on ‘Click Plok’, as does his deftness at producing delicate, gliding pads, which this time are punctuated by tight bleeps, gentle open hats and a meandering synth solo. The atmosphere is still just as palpable on closing track ‘FBG’. A balmy syncopated groove leads the charge, joined harmoniously by twinkling synth melodies that dance over dusty breakbeats and hushed vocal stutters.
