Jackson Hale’s Zonra project has earned a well-rounded reputation for the depth, detail, and overall presentation of his minted works. Each release has explored numerous themes in the space of contemporary sound design, broken-beat bass music, and scintillating downtempo collections, giving him an already extremely wide, well-balanced berth of music under his belt. Never content to miss the opportunity for compositional gold, the most recent collection of Zonra works are a significant step away from his more dance floor-friendly interpretations: Conviction is an ambient exploration of generative synthesis, modular hardware, and emotive overtures, and The Rust Music is extraordinarily excited to give yet another Zonra release a proper introduction.

Conviction comprises three syncretic tracks, each a separate movement in an elongated presentation of the central piano theme. Across a run-time of 20 minutes, the dominant phrase evolves and morphs in accordance with envelopes triggered by Zonra’s physical modular systems, creating a tapestry of rich, interwoven textures and tension. Leaving behind the toil of tempo and quantization, Zonra once again redefines the upper limit of his skills and catalog, producing a stunning piece of contemporary music that sets him a step ahead of the pack. Whether you’ve been following along with the steady stream of Zonra releases over the years, or you’re just tuning in for the first time, the Conviction EP is one record that’ll you have you tuning in over and over again.

My track “d d d O b b b” feat. Stine Grøn is out today for the full moon! 🌝
Listen to it here: https://rumpistol.lnk.to/dob
I spent the first week of January alone in a small cabin in the countryside, and this was the first idea that materialized. I think the song reflects the mood of being isolated in the midst of the dark Danish winter quite well.
Scary at times but also a bit like a cocoon for creativity. It's almost as if time stands still.
The wonderful Stine Grøn later came by my studio and recorded her beautiful wordless vocals.
Later, while touring with Kalaha, we recorded Anders Stig Møller's epic freetless bass in the lobby of Danhostel Ebeltoft and last Selma Trier added her ethereal harp playing.
The song is included on my upcoming album “Going Inside” - an album created especially for inner journeys and psychedelic therapy.
It is the third and final album in my piano trilogy – starting with “After The Flood” & “Isola” and will be out September 29th.

ETHNO is back on Gravitas Recordings August 11th with a stand-out single “Leaf Water” off his upcoming EP.  This timeless track is truly something special and is a full cinematic journey through his global sound and blend of styles.  Leaf Water and the full EP is a unique approach to global bass dance music, crossing genres and borders alike.  This sound and approach stand out sonically and rhythmically amongst the masses of bass producers and DJs, a truly unique experience.  This is just what Gravitas is always digging for and is a perfect release to showcase his sound.

“Leaf Water is one of my favorite songs I have ever written. The sound embodies an organic approach to electronic music production that I value very deeply. Using a combination of analog synths and live performance, I was able to blend the sounds to create a completely unique sonic environment. Every time I hear Leaf Water or play it, I take a pause, because music for me is therapeutic and the compositional elements of Leaf Water seem to ring my bells from past, present and future influences. It truly is a musical composition with sounds representing so many beautiful aspects of life and culture. The name of the song aligns with the sound of the song. The imagery for me is a tropical rainforest gulch, full of bioluminescent water droplets rolling from leaf to leaf, dancing their way through the vegetation, hydrating the bountiful ferns and jungle leaves along the way.” - ETHNO

Leaf Water opens with beautiful analog synth stabs and vocal chops, echoing around the soundscape and immediately enchanting the listener. It drops into a downtempo beat and organic textures filling the space and keeping the beautiful soundscape created before.  Slowly building and layering new ideas, this meditative beat brings in heavier bright synths that brings us back to the old school Flume sound.  This track is perfect for a beautiful day and mindful meditative state, listening over and over to find new aspects and parts you missed the first time around.

ETHNO is releasing his debut EP “Musicology Vol. 1” on Gravitas Recordings September 1st.  This EP is the beginning of the artistic gates opening for ETHNO, sitting on hours of original music and ready to show the world this first chapter.  Jeffrey Franca (ETHNO) is the drummer and musical director for Thievery Corporation and has a full lifetime of touring and influences under his belt.  His unique approach on global bass music incorporates all of these influences from around the world into a special blend of sounds.  We are excited for what is next for this legend and his project ETHNO.

“This is an amazing introduction to the experiences and influences realized by a life in music.  The EP is a unique approach to global bass dance music, crossing genres and borders alike. This sound and approach stand out sonically and rhythmically amongst the masses of bass producers and DJs, a truly unique experience” - ETHNO

The Journey opens the EP with panning female vocal chants, flutes and synths filling the air and painting a beautiful soundscape.  It drops into flowing bass and beautiful stabby synths, epicly building into a larger drop incorporating a new lead and a flow beat. Awake again (ft. Celestine) slows down the tempo and starts with lush string instruments and beautiful vocals that immediately teleport us to another world.  Building on top with catchy electronic synth leads and a catchy chorus, this one can put anyone in a good mood. Exhale has a beautiful downtempo intro and slowly brings in electronic leads and similar sounds to the previous tracks, maintaining the same vibe yet showing a different side to the project.  Leaf Water opens with beautiful analog synth stabs and vocal chops, echoing around the soundscape and immediately enchanting the listener. Slowly building and layering new ideas, this meditative beat brings in heavier bright synths that brings us back to the old school electronic music sound.  My Personality (ft. Born-I) switches it up and brings a higher energy groove and brings in iconic rapper Born-I.  Focusing more on the beat and rap than the synths and other ideas, while still incorporating the sound and style that ETHNO has created for this release.  A perfect end to the release that leaves us wanting more.

Musicology Vol. 1
