"As Typeless steps into its fourth release, label head Aloka turns eyes and ears to the
horizon with a shapeshifting drop of breakbeat, electro and ambient. Fusing together
textural arrangements and genre hybrids, he sets his sights on
experimentation with ‘Inta’.

The opening track ‘Inta’ moves with a dreamy, indirect gaze and wistful melodies as though
sighing itself into existence. Amongst it all sits a subtle beat which carries it into the
dancefloor realm, yet it’s when they apex together that its weight blooms from the core. ‘B4
XL’ begins almost as an ensuing chapter to its predecessor with its ambient washes, but
soon ripens into an antagonistic electro number that tumbles between raging synths and
breaks.
On the B-side, ‘Chroma’ diffracts into a million colours, glassy eyed in its introduction but
hiding tyrannica kicks and syncopations underneath a swooping bass. The closing track
‘Movement’ slinks straight into a workout-ready guise, merging panting exhalations, pearly
synths and choppy breakbeats against the sensation of a spectral figure reaching a deep
state of flow.

With this second self-release on the label, it’s as though Aloka is so deeply immersed in his
complex vision that he’s stepped out of his body to watch it all unfold. There’s one word to
describe this image of him in his effortless performance as both label curator and signee:
fitting."

‘Waters Rising’ is a collaboration with vocalist Lola Empire and was originally written around a piano sketch that was sent back and forth between the two artists until it became the fully realised song you hear now.  

"I really hadn't expected love to be a theme in the album, but I was chatting with Lola and she told me how she'd fallen in love. I sent her the initial sketch for this and told her i didn't think love was an appropriate subject for it. but she came out with this. 
'love is dark' she said."
