This release is not only a way to get some cash in to make up for the lost computers (I'm not gonna lie), but also some final closure after weeks of pretty intense feelings, call it a big middle finger...

About 6 weeks ago burglars found their way into my flat and stole 3 MacBooks.
Besides an overwhelming rollercoaster of emotions, realizing strangers invaded my personal space and robbed me for a few 1000 euros, it hit me that I almost never made any back ups from music projects.
Until I realized I sometimes upload drafts of tracks on SoundCloud as I still had some tracks left who didn't make the cut for my previous releases. Leftovers, indeed.

This release contains three quite different tracks, made during the last two years. A jumpy one, a groovy tool and a slow burner would be my very poetic way to describe them. 

Thanks again for all your supportive messages, to all the people who checked in how I was doing and to all the people who are buying these tracks of course.

A big shout to Altinbas who saved these tracks by mixing and mastering them, just based on a badly mixed, overcompressed file on Soundcloud.

Live recording at Basilar Festival 2024.
Phara playing live under his 'In Glass' moniker, using the Korg Electribe EMX-1.

The recording is made with a Tascam DR-40.
Unfortunately I didn't use the right settings and only used the internal microphone which I found out afterwards, but loved the aesthetics of the recording.

Phara Pres. 'In Glass' - Live At Basilar 2024

Very happy to share the recording of my live set at Stone Techno Festival last summer.  Summer was full of highlights and this show was definitely one of them, with such a great energy and crowd at the stage hosted by Fuse. 

Technology will never be able to recreate a vibe on a dancefloor (I hope), but those who were there that day know it was something very special. 
Really enjoyed this one a lot.

Phara presents, ‘In Glass’. The first release under this new moniker, moving at a softer and more harmonic cadence. 
Expect layered, mesmerising soundscapes inspired by cold winter days, held together with the more familiar tensions and textures you might expect from Phara.

With subsequent Basilar and Berghain appearances - Phara will preform live under In Glass live at a select number of venues and festivals in 2025.
