Pavel Petrov announces the release of his debut album, Youth, on 1st October via his EXE Audio label. The stunning album is a genre-bending electronic journey that takes in chill out, deep house, tech, techno and more across 11 tracks, three of which are bonus tunes.

Bulgarian Petrov has long been crafting vital electronic sounds for labels like Jannowitz Records, Jaw Dropping, Afine and his own EXE. He has had high profile support from tastemakers like Pan-Pot, Carl Cox and Hot Since 82 and is always evolving his richly layered sounds. Recent months since the world reopened have been some of the most successful in his career so far. They have been filled with plenty of chart-topping new releases and DJ sets at plenty of crowded parties which have sent shockwaves in all directions.

Says the artist, “I was inspired to create this album at the New Year’s after-party and started it on January 1st. Creating this album was an outlet in a time of uncertainty during the pandemic. It holds a message of hope, the power of music, and the desire to be reunited on the dance-floor.:

Youth is the most versatile set of Petrov productions to date. It features the likes of Astro feat Kamalimani with its slick electro grooves and atmospheric vocals, standout single 'Independence,' which has been spun in many DJ sets around the world over the past year, and new single 'In Existence,' which was released with a video earlier this month. Further highlights on this great album include the playful 'Society' with its chunky drum funk and futuristic synths, and the beautifully melodic 'Molanda' with its spoken word vocals and epic chords.

From pulsing club bangers with rolling bass-lines and roaring synths, to chill-out sonic journeys, Youth is a most accomplished artistic statement from Pavel Petrov.

Dreaming Summer (Original Mix)

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
Yeah, a new phase, let’s elevate the game,
Survival's an art, but it’s never the same,
Got this mask on my face, but who’s it really for?
Gotta know the crowd, before I walk through that door.
Each gaze's a puzzle, yeah, a different combination,
To control the perception, gotta study their creation.
Not the motivational quotes or the sugar-coated lines,
But the raw, unfiltered truth that twists and binds.

Chorus:
Wearing a mask, gotta know who’s at the show,
Each face a reflection of the path that I know,
In a world of deception, gotta see through the scheme,
Understand their nature, unravel the dream.

Verse 2:
Look, Machiavelli taught me, without any disguise,
That the kindest smiles can hide the sharpest lies,
Weak souls lurking, fickle hearts on parade,
Admire me today, tomorrow I’m betrayed.
Peep the glances, read the silent actions,
Every whisper carries a weight of distractions,
To control their thoughts, it’s a delicate art,
Know the rhythm of their pulse, feel the beat of their heart.

Chorus:
Wearing a mask, gotta know who’s at the show,
Each face a reflection of the path that I know,
In a world of deception, gotta see through the scheme,
Understand their nature, unravel the dream.

Bridge:
See, it ain’t all roses, there’s thorns that can sting,
With love comes envy, watch the chaos they bring,
No more romantic veils, it’s a harsh revelation,
But understanding this truth brings liberation.
I’m standing in the shadows, but the light’s getting clearer,
Gonna tear those illusions ‘cause the end’s getting nearer.

Chorus:
Wearing a mask, gotta know who’s at the show,
Each face a reflection of the path that I know,
In a world of deception, gotta see through the scheme,
Understand their nature, unravel the dream.

Original idea for this song:
And here a new facet of survival appears. If you create a mask, you must clearly understand for whom you wear it. And in order to control other people's perceptions, you need to know well those whom you want to control. And so we come to the next thought. Wearing a mask is pointless if you do not understand who is looking at it. To control people, you need to know their nature. Not the way they teach in books on motivation. Not the way they sing in songs about goodness, but the way I knew, Machiavelli, without embellishment, without hope, without self-deception. I tore the romantic veil from human nature and saw what people try not to notice - weak people, fickle people, envious people. They can admire you today and despise you tomorrow.

About album:
“Power Play. TRUTH Co. Ltd” soundcloud.com/igdrus/sets/power-play-truth-co-ltd

Album combines the philosophy of Nicola Machiavelli with modern musical genres, creating a unique sound and visual representation of ideas.
The album of 28 songs combines deep philosophy and modern musical elements, turning into a unique art project.

The laconic and capacious title reflects the main theme of the album - manipulation of power, hidden motives and political games inspired by the ideas of Nicola Machiavelli. The name "TRUTH Co. Ltd." emphasizes the duality of truth and its dependence on the context, enhancing the atmosphere of intrigue and mystery, emphasizes the symbolism and corporate metaphor of control over the truth and perception of reality.

The album covers a wide range of topics related to political struggle, such as justice, vanity, power, disguise of true intentions, flexibility of behavior, laws and orders of society, survival strategies, the desire to become a symbolic leader, changes in public consciousness, forces of nature (wind, waves), mass consciousness and the opposition of the individual to the collective. All these aspects are reflected in this album, making it multifaceted and deep.
