Abdul Raeva - Stamina

"Normally we spend an obscene amount of time preparing mixes but not much thought went into this one. It was really just plug and play, and the first couple of tracks cleared the way for the rest. We’ve been fortunate enough to play lots of shows in 2023, so we got to learn through trial and error, what makes us tick behind the decks. This mix is basically an organic A-Z amalgamation of that. Tried and tested while cleaning house!"

@abdulraeva, aka powerhouse duo Steffan Todorović and Joonas Arro, have been making waves with their consistent, no nonsense club tool releases. We’re stoked to catch up with them ahead of their first South-East Asia / Australia tour.

On the imprint’s latest, Oath takes the vibrations right up into the slipstreams via Elfenberg’s latest slice of proggy, euphoria driven excellence….

Elfenberg has become a well known figure within dance music spheres for his expertly crafted and otherworldly chuggy sound. Taking cues from a wide variety of influences, Elfenberg’s music slots in very nicely within the most celebrated of trance laden progressive house and techno - with his signature twist always allowing for a few surprises along the way. Each release he has brought to the fore has provided another string to his impressive bow, fuelling the dance and the emotions with delicate, poised techniques. As much as his tunes are dance floor orientated, his sound has a subtly and deftness to it, an enchanted rhythmic and melodic blend that gives over so much to the listener. His sound ensnares the senses, providing moments to get lost within and moments in which to let yourself go - a music universe that has always remained acutely blended and emotionally poised.

‘Ritmo Paradiso’ contains all of Elfenberg’s signature motifs, but as always it's an EP which spreads itself sonically wide but presents a soundscape which is razor sharp in its focus. The title track swings into view with a deep, pulsating bass and drum loop, which shifts frequency to draw focus to the high hat that slides into the mid section. Acidic flavourings wash over the top of the groove, with the core melodic driver emerging from the mid range. Percussive elements add texture and forward momentum, with slowly evolving pads creating a gentle yet expansive backdrop. ‘Vasastan’ comes next, and this one seeks a different kind of feeling. A spaced out, IDM leaning rhythm provides the basis for a lucid acid line to permeate from side to side. The stage is set for all manner of wondrous melodic features to present themselves, from the flowery keys through to the swelling synths, it's an audial whirlpool in which to get lost over and over again.

It seems with every Elfenberg record, there’s a journey to be undertaken and a tale to be enjoyed, and this one is no different. From the word go, the rhythms are intoxicating, the melodies are otherworldly, and the overall sensation is one of progressive excellence. Always on the move, eager to showcase more, it's a truly tantalising experience - and one that Oath is beyond thrilled to present….

PREMIERE: Elfenberg - Styggforsen (Abdul Raeva's Fugue Mix)

Gearmaster - Chaka Time

Taking over Tapes #151 is Gearmaster, formerly known as Abdul Raeva, a collaboration between Steffan Todorović and Joonas Arro. The pair have created some of the most consistent, no-nonsense club bangers in recent years. 

They first crossed paths in early 2018, shortly after which they formed Abdul Raeva— a project that would become pivotal in shaping a new wave of acid and progressive house. This year marks the beginning of a fresh chapter for the pair, as they announced Gearmaster would be their primary focus moving forward. Serving to create a more refined and versatile sound, the duo promise the same energetic style that they have become known for. Whether it’s shape-shifting psychedelia, spongy basslines or punchy grooves, fun is always the core element of their sound.
