P r e m i e r e: Lakej - Hidden Symetry (Original Mix) [DEF096]

Born in Southern Spain, this DJ and producer has immersed himself in the electronic music scene for over 15 years, beginning his journey at just 14 with his first pair of vinyl decks.
By the age of 17, he was already crafting his own tracks. After a decade of self-taught sound design and further studies in harmony, his current work showcases the immense potential
of this versatile and innovative electronic artist. For the past decade, he has focused primarily on Drum & Bass under the alias Impak. Establishing himself as one of the genre’s most influential figures in Spain. His finely honed productions frequently graced the Beatport charts, and his name became synonymous with top-tier Drum & Bass events. As a resident DJ at the iconic
Industrial Copera in Granada, he cemented his reputation while regularly headlining parties across the country. On the international stage, Impak became a recognized name, releasing music with esteemed labels such as Cause4Concern and earning support from key figures like Optiv, BTK, and Prolix. His sound echoed through venues across Europe on numerous tours, further solidifying his place in the global scene. In recent years, this wealth of experience has fueled his shift into the world of techno under the alias Atonism. With his second vinyl release on Freddy K's Key Vinyl label, as well as more than ten digital releases on respected labels such as Flash, Warok, Autonome, Cantilce and Olympian, Atonism’s sound is a blend of intellectual grooves and captivating rhythms. His music seamlessly combines carefully crafted sound design with powerful, yet refined, textures. Drawing inspiration from techno, groove, neuro, and analog approaches, Atonism’s compositions are crafted with precision and intent, aimed at creating a rich, immersive experience on the dancefloor. Now, with a refined approach to musicality and a deeper sense of elegance in his work, Atonism represents the next chapter of an already remarkable journey, pushing boundaries and evolving his sound with every release.

HABITUS Invites #57: Atonism

Asymmetric head Inigo Kennedy returns to his label with a much anticipated five track EP 'Ghost Reaction'.

'Limerence' opens the EP in a confident mood with a solid four-to-the-floor beat, burbling acid and Detroit-tinged chords which bring a playful tension as the track progresses. Second up, is the title track 'Ghost Reaction', a powerful, bass-heavy and shuffling beast that is juxtaposed with a typically assured Kennedy melody. 'Obsession' centres the release with its undulating wash and electro-like beat set against wistful, delicate tones. 'Splinters' brings the mystery with shards of gritty swirling frequencies and a heavy-hitting Asymmetric double-kick beat. Closing the EP is 'Cold Sweat' which takes the tempo down a notch but keeps the intensity up with its solid kick, metallic pulsing and acid-like bass fluctuations. Dig in!

A1: Flashback
A2: W9Y
B1: Ascender
B2: Break Nation

INFO:

Unmistakable are the sonic experiments of Spanish alchemist ORBE; with this fresh release on Token. ORBE’s iconically viscous textures and impactful percussion weasel their way into ‘Ascender’ for a deeper release on Kr!z’s label. Thick, brooding atmospheres drive these tracks into stories of pursuit and escape throughout its four tracks.  

A slick, pulsating low end in ‘Flashback’ stands out as a first impression for an imposing EP. Electric leads zip by for maximum psychosis; he’s known for his uncompromising dissonance and drive. A staple of the Spanish scene, ORBE bites down hard on deep and hypnotic techno to resonate through concrete warehouses. This jagged edge to club music continues through ‘W9Y’ - a more drum-forward cut with noisy transitions and breathable synthwork. Sharper stabs occupy this space as opposed to the track’s predecessor and tension is maintained with a lingering pad in the background. A meditative conclusion for the A side, ORBE quickly shifts his attention in the titletrack ‘Ascender’. Emphasizing tone and tune on the kick, the lead comes with confrontation. Rolling through shifting hats, the producer brings boiling tension through minimal arrangement and the weight of his sound design - a skillset only the most seasoned artists can claim. To close things out, ‘Break Nation’ does just that - cutting off the traditional four/four rhythm and instead presenting itself as a bass stepper. With ORBE’s classic unison packed synths, this dweller presents a whole other perspective on ‘Ascender’. A hybrid of influences and yet still destined for the techno dancefloor, this breath of fresh air serves as deep dive into the subconscious for an eyes-closed experience.

Recorded live at my Else debut where i closed out the night with my friends around me. One of those unforgettable nights that’ll stay with me for a long time. Hope you enjoy the recording as much as I enjoyed playing it.
