"Tfw you open Propellerhead Reason in your imaginary private economy class jet music studio, and cannot find the dubstep sounds..."

With his forthcoming album Dofflin Beach, Danish producer icfam invites listeners into the shimmering, slippery world of dofflin — a bright, futuristic, and mostly forgotten subgenre of electronic music from mid 2010s.

Conceived as the soundtrack to a behind-the-scenes video from an imaginary world tour, Dofflin Beach plays like a surreal travel diary: a jet-lagged superstar wandering from a beach party where “everyone was stang-bacardi,” to a sunrise jam session with bongos, synths, and even synth-bongos. Amongst the dancing people, a digital video camera gets tossed around, capturing the energy in fragments.

“Trying to capture the essence of dofflin is a slippery affair,” icfam admits. Yet on Dofflin Beach he leans into those early inspirations and influences, reimagining them in his own way about a decade later. It’s music that evokes both longing and belonging.

From beach to beach, to the imaginary private jet studio over the open sea, this album is a postcard from a place where dofflins do sing and play.

Cotton Mouth (@c0tt0nm0uth) is a Swedish electronic music producer, multidisciplinary artist, and the art director of YEAR0001. From field recordings captured outdoors, to samples twisted beyond recognition, to intricate drum loops, each sound is refracted through a prism of time and space, reflecting flowing, uncanny, and unpredictable light, crafting deeply immersive sonic landscapes.

His debut album "Homeward Ryder" is at once icy and uplifting, it synthesizes pulsing electronic music with more blurred sonic textures, blending and deconstructing IDM, trance, and ambient into a hallucinatory journey of sound. The inspiration comes from a dream he had of a sound system composed of a swarm of small flying spherical speakers, moving freely like a flock of birds. Each speaker had its own voice, synth melodies, whispering piano, lively rhythms, they interacted and echoed one another, ultimately performing the entire piece together.
