With a string of releases on prestigious labels such as The Gods Planet, Affin, Edit Select and Circular Limited - the London-based Acaera (formerly Basis Change) has become a reputable name in the realm of hypnotic techno. We are truly honoured to present this EP as our label’s first release, and we hope to return Acaera’s trust in us with the pressing of a beautifully packaged limited edition vinyl alongside the digital release. The vinyl includes two vinyl-only ambient tracks that book-end the release, with the first being the track from which the EP takes its name. Unfold begins a deeply personal journey, and immediately the listener is welcomed by a rich and atmospheric soundscape. This depth remains through the rolling enchantment of Apex and the off-kilter percussion and shifting grooves of Anaesthesia. Onto the B Side, Learned Behaviour is a track of slow revelation, pulling the listener mesmerically through its unfolding landscape. Forella will resonate with those who know Acaera’s signature sound, with broken rhythm work soaked in beautiful pads. Closing out the EP, Reorientation culminates on an uplifting note, leaving you contemplating feelings of warmth and hopefulness.

AF Premiere: Acaera - Apex [Portal][OUT!!1.12.23]

For the first addition to this mini mix series we're excited to have a deep and driving hour of techno from Phil Warner. Impeccably put together with just a pair of turntables, sit back and get lost in this hypnotic and emotive selection of records that Phil has provided for us!

But before you get too comfy, this is a mix series with a twist. Each instalment will arrive alongside an entry to an original comic series, with some sci-fi visuals to accompany your listening. Techno is after all supposed to be spacey and otherworldly ... give it go!
