Melodic Diggers's record label: Equanimity

Two stories, shared by two voices - casked together by two sounds. Tayir’s debut EP on Equanimity blends together the day and night, encapsulated by a duality of light and dark.

Embodied with quirky sounds and dissected melodies, the Berlin duo merge together a selection of abstract feels, coolly unified in its electronic stance.

Daylight comes humorous as ‘Angry Customer’: the melody dawns and blossoms amongst the hi-hats and whimsical harmonics and paves the way to the angry voice - expressive vocabulary we’ve certainly felt at least once in our lives; a lighter heart is carried throughout with the big, bouncy bassline straight to the end.

Shooting straight to ‘The Dark Side’, we take a deeper turn with the harder kicks, slicker scratches and a harmony which canvases from the bottom to the top and all over again, as the vocals revel in admitting ‘at night I do crazy things’. An anecdote to all ourselves as we slip from the sun into the shadows.

Tayir - The Dark Side | Equanimity

Milenar - millennium: a splash into the new age of modern technology, musically speaking. Keith Holland makes his mark with this four-track EP, where he toys with an array of synthesized sounds and digital snags - an EP engineered for the electronic age.

Its title track embodies all things mechanical: sonic soundwaves drive along the senses, with an accession of data glitches rising into the cloud, as the monologued structure helps pin at least some stability to normality.

Natural textures, fluid movements, slick rhythms and a unique pinch of electronic energy: this is
Agustin Giri’s ‘Talking Chamber’ EP.

Agustin Giri - Between Visions | Equanimity

After the success of their track ‘Masakali’ on our label Equanimity debut VA, Amsterdam duo Volar dial in plenty of power and a generous lashing of head-spinning goodness with their ‘Axiom’ EP.

‘Caldera’ lends itself to an algorithm of natural textures, enticing melodies and progressive movement. Rolling like thunder, chains clink like gold as it speeds forwards, burns down and slowly rattles up to the final stop.

Volar - Veo | Equanimity

Four unique tracks, for different moments in time: Yet More delivers ‘Brenda Bradley’, testifying his penchant for weaving distinctive samples into irresistible harmonies and groove.

‘Tango Inferno’ still displays Yet More’s inclination for playing with rhythmic vibrancy, but this time in a conspicuous manner: as the rolling bassline repeatedly freefalls, ultra-muffled voices delicately converse to each other as acidic glitches glow amongst the bouncing drummed groove - a sprightly tale of dancing with fire.

Up first is the titular ‘Brenda Bradley’, which glides as smoothly as the name falls off the tongue. Joined by chunks of chaotic kicks which punch mightily, a solar-tinged melody gleans beneath the vocal sample to find ourselves stationed in a prime-time battle position.

Running amongst a selection of soundwaves, textures and melodies, comes Frequencies, Vol. 1: a 12-part story from some of our favourite names to cross the fold. Here to expand and indulge your senses, through the impact of different signals formulating our minds. 

First single, ‘Look At My A**’ sees Yet More and Assayag merge artistic personas once again - and this time showing us a bit of sass. Bustling a bold, thumping bassline, and laced with shallow, rattling kicks and whirring sirens, the duo swear solemnly to their tried-and-tested vocal sample formula. Tongue in cheek, flowing with high-octane energy, this is a satirical dance floor groover which stimulates the senses to make them sway and swell.

Second pre-VA compilation serving is from Milan DJ and producer Auggië. It paints an emotional portrait which lulls an ethereal stance and plays heavy on the heart. ‘Love Wait’ sings a soothing, synthesised symphony and marks the beginnings of a celestial universe; yet gilded with delicate riffs and the contrasting piano chords help bring all frequencies and feelings down to earth to forge a more personal connection with the soul. Capturing an intimate, complex and contradictory portrait of love, sung through the soft layers of affectionate elements.

Keith Holland - Fardo | Equanimity

We have the pleasure to welcome back Adrian Roman on Equanimity with a 3-track EP, made with sharp, melancholic and percussive pieces.

Adrian's words were:
"These songs have been accompanying me for the last year. For me they are like the result of a distillation of all the sounds that were around me. I have tried to bring them to a minimum, until they are minimally recognizable. Of course I am very happy to share this project with Equanimity, I was already present at their first release and I think it is a good combo to continue with this EP."
