art:cast °143 | Aiden Francis

With several releases under his belt Manchester-based artist Aiden Francis definitely has left the status of one to look out for and turned it to one to follow when searching for inspiring genre-spanning music to play out. His outings on Magic Carpet, Gestalt Records, Houseum Records and, his latest, on Holly Lester’s Duality Trax certainly have paved Aiden the way for a bright future in the electronic music scene. His less is more approach as well as his “elusive character“ and - let’s say it - the changing hair-colors conduced to Aiden’s success. But maybe it’s his recklessness of not taking himself too seriously that makes the originally from Yorkshire-coming artist an appealing character in the scene and this, in combination with his music, is golden and definitely continues the golden era of emerging artists from northern England. In his interview with Torture the Artist Aiden speaks about his pre-artist times, the status quo, his obsession with digging music as well as studio works and releases. Alongside the interview he delivers a club-oriented mix to ring in the weekend.

SEQG012 B1. SameSame - Balcony Romance [snippet]

If you like your dance music to take you on a psychedelic journey through time and space, the DESERT LEATHER EP is for you.

Winding passages that explore breaks, bleeps, bass and beyond.

Genre defying influences snatched from every dimension of the dance diaspora.

Inescapable body-rocking beats that echo through your very bones so hard that even your ancestors have a boogie.

The DESERT LEATHER EP will expand your mind to the very edge of the horizon, where earth and sky meet and where all laws of nature are meaningless.
