Since its first outing in 2004, Matthew Dear’s AUDION
guise has predominantly acted as a darker, edgier
commentary to the pop-infused house concoctions to
be found under the producer’s birth name. A twisted
reflection of sorts, it contemplated electronic music
through the lens of grime-flecked techno and sinewy
funk - resulting in relentless floor-fillers like the aptly
named “Kisses”, “Just Fucking” or “Mouth To Mouth”.
Compared to the itchy momentum and carnal damp of
these freak classics, the sophisticated elegance of new
offering DEM HOWL is rather unexpected: chaperoned
by the emotionally charged timbre of TROELS
ABRAHAMSEN’s vocals - first introduced to Kompakt’s
vocabulary via Kölsch’s “All That Matters” -, this cut
steers away from the battle-scarred body music of yore
and towards the more introspective moments on the
dance floor - without sacrificing one iota of the
precisely engineered groove machinery that is Audion.
“This song was a product of the modern age we live in”,
says Matthew Dear about DEM HOWL’s genesis: ”I heard
a song with Troels singing on it and immediately fell in love
with his voice. I found him online and directly messaged
him about collaborating. He happily agreed and I sent him
the instrumental - he promptly came up with the lyrics and
melody and sent them back to me. A few days after that, I
had the song complete and ready to go. All in all, it took
about a week from the idea to a fully-fledged new piece of
music.” However, the straightforward production does not
keep the track from incubating his own mysteries - deeply
steeped in melancholia, it displays theurgic qualities and
seamlessly transitions from emotional to somatic urgency
without batting so much as an eyelash. Gripping remixes
come from Kompakt head MICHAEL MAYER and Dutch
maestro JORIS VOORN (digital only) who cater to the
enthusiasts of evocative bells and homeric synth pads -
beautiful mood pieces just as immersive and timeless as
the original.

For close to 15 years, Gui Boratto has been a core member of the Kompakt family and remains one of Brazil’s most cherished electronic music producers of our generation. His work over the years includes five studio albums, countless EP releases and remixes for the likes of Massive Attack, Pet Shop Boys and Paul Simon to name a few. Beyond that he operates his own label imprint D.O.C. which houses fledgling and established Brazlilan acts such as L_CIO, Shadow Movement and others.

Gui Boratto and Kompakt proudly inaugurate a new live recorded set series on the label entitled “Backstage”. A live set recorded in June during the peak of lockdown in his Sao Paulo studio, Gui Boratto that brings forward new life to his most classic recordings along with new, unreleased music in a seamless live mix. His live shows have been a huge part of what fans have come to love from this charismatic producer and “Backstage” is here to exemplify that.

“Backstage” coincides with the release of his new EP for Kompakt entitled “Wake Up” – of which all three of the tracks appear in the live mix. Gui Boratto’s signature style is back and bolder than ever. His classic debut “Chromophobia” has an inescapable essence that rings through the title track Wake Up. His wife Luciana Villanova returns on vocals to caress us on a cloudy tom tom driven breakdown of a beat. “Beksy’s” brings that mid-tempo energy Gui is so good immersed in dramatic synth stabs that make it heavenly sounding. “Endless Holidays” is a disco-house tinged affair that relies on a killer bass line to move clap happy hi hats and a duelling guitar to unpronounced levels of positiveness.
