SERA010: Satellite Era presents "Distant Arrays Volume 04" - the fourth edition of our various artist series that aims to diversify our collection of experimental dance music.

Out now on all major music platforms: https://smarturl.it/wzk7iu

Following the same trajectory as our past visits to the arrays, we set out to curate a specific theme for our latest flight through worldwide sonics. This time, we picked up the pace and guided the series towards the realm of jungle and drum 'n' bass - an unaddressed foundation of our label until now.  

As heard in Label Showcase 01 earlier this year, we welcome @stiipo with "Drowning In Your Magic" - a lovely rendition of atmospheric jungle. Though this is his project debut on our collective, Swedish producer Nils Kirchberg is no stranger to Satellite Era. He also writes UK garage as Lazarus Moment and delivered a well-received EP for our previous release. Even when trekking into the dense soundscapes of jungle, he keeps his style alive to deliver an emotive track full of warm pads clashing with punchy breaks.

Welcoming himself as a new addition to our team, Chicago-based producer @norfik greets us with a face-melting jungle track that steps on the tempo throttle and meddles with breakcore antics. "Artificial Decay" surely feels like its denotation - radioactive in its core with an acidic synth and unforgivable drums. It pays a high-speed homage to quintessential jungle, from its vocal samples to chopped-up Think Break. With stellar releases on PBDY's Tar imprint, we are very grateful to have him on board.

Another promising add-on to the crew is local drum 'n' bass connoisseur @johnathanthomasmusic. Having been involved in the niche Chicago DnB scene for years now, he reemerges from the underground with "Brute Force," a screaming, bass-heavy track that still retains a peculiar percussive groove. The song feels straight out of an early 2000s DnB record, flaunting its high energy and tear-out mentality. Old-school sounds meet pristine modern production in this one.

Finally, we welcome back @zunibass for another translation of his drum 'n' bass language. A true multi-faceted craftsman in the genre, the Michigan producer delivers "Growth" - soft yet attentive, this soulful track embodies its name and displays his development over the past year, from his label debut in Distant Arrays Volume 02. He continues to show us that less is more by utilizing minimalism and giving us a glimpse into the future with arguably some of his best work yet.

Distant Arrays is an immersive showcase of our audio/visual capabilities as a collective. We are honored to introduce you to our growing team, continuously expanding our newfound interpretation of sound.

"Stationed beyond the horizon lies a cluster of autonomous satellite arrays - each serving as capsules of detained time, points of transit between diverse concepts, and the sensorial relation between tangible audio and visual worlds. They fill the thin air with varied frequencies and beam optic elements into the minds of drawn newcomers and devoted adherents alike. Though each array hosts different creators from every remote edge of this decaying planet, they communicate with us through the vigorous potential of art. They link together to create a limitless field without borders – only human connection. These are the Distant Arrays..."
