Phutureprimitive teams up with An-Ten-Nae on a unique approach to collaboration. The duo wrote ‘Altered Frequencies’ together but each will release their own edit. The Phutureprimitive edit releases October 11, following by the An-Ten-Nae edit on October 25. The ‘Altered Frequencies Tour’ features both artists and can be seen across the US in November through January.

“Everything in Life is Vibration” Albert Einstein. Frequency is the rate at which that vibration is happening. Altered Frequencies is about playing with the meta-level perspective that we can alter our frequencies (choices, thoughts, meaning we assign things, actions) to create different outcomes. It’s about exploring how much responsibility we can take for our own vibrations and the resulting outcomes they influence and manifest. The title also relates to the collaborative creative process of both artists starting writing one song together, but branching out to finalize two seperate edits. You could see this as us starting with the same source frequency, and the result will be two different altered frequencies, filtered through their individual psyches, and pouring from the speakers.

‘Altered Frequencies (Phutureprimitive Edit)’ seeks to tell a story which begins at night, in a ceremonial context. Beginning with the sound of crickets and an Oud (a short-necked string instrument predominantly heard in West Asia and North African Music) playing a melody hinting at a journey about to unfold. The song & journey continues and explores the feeling of being catapulted out of the familiar and into the void, into the collective consciousness, out of your mind and into your senses, beyond space and time.

Phutureprimitive is the moniker of Bay Area producer and songwriter Rain. Early childhood photos reveal Rain sitting at the piano plinking keys, grinning from ear to ear… a true sign of things to come. Continuing his early fascination, Rain was later drawn to electronic music, inspired by its ability to combine the best of organically played instruments and the synthetic pleasures of sounds more exotic to the human ear. After beginning a DJ career in the 90s, Rain began incorporating the music he was making in his home studio into his DJ sets. That was all it took to trigger a full blown love affair with electronic music and the process of its creation... and Phutureprimitive was born.

Phutureprimitive's music is best described as dripping wet love drops of nasty mind melting sonic bliss. Lush melodies drift across intricate rhythms, groove heavy beats and warm, fuzzy bass lines. Often exploring a dark and dense palette, there is also a profound sense of tranquility and beauty, engaging the listener into hypnotic movement and often escalating into a full-on kinetic experience. Shimmering with cinematic qualities, his music ultimately speaks to the body, mind and soul.

Despite electronic music's tendency to suffer a short shelf life, Phutureprimitive has already demonstrated a timeless quality with his debut album "Sub Conscious" on Waveform Records, which remains the top seller on the label since its release in 2004, obtaining a cult status among fans and collectors. With a string of singles released in the interim on various labels, the birth of Native Harmonix (Rain’s own Record Label) brought us the “Luminous” EP in 2010; delving into a lyrical based production, supported by undulating synth work and a palpable haunting texture throughout. His second full-length release “Kinetik” forged new territories of emotional electronic dance music, exploring a heavier, bass-centric sound that adds raw energy to intricately detailed tracks. "Kinetik" remains on the iTunes Top 100 Electronic Music Chart, 3 years after its release.

With a new collection of songs released in 2 parts titled “Searching for Beauty in the Darkest Places,” he takes ideas from his previous releases and supercharges them with hard-hitting dancefloor appeal, while maintaining the depth and prowess this trusted producer is so well known for. His first national headlining tour in Fall 2013 debuted his collaboration with ritual dancer Caeli La. The tour launched with the release of their first official music video, "Lucid Dream," a collaboration with multi-media production team Vinton Depiction & Michael Miller, the animation/visual effects creator behind NBC's "Grimm." The Dance Out Your Demons Tour featured an interactive game, in which the audience members write down a "demon," fear, or something they are letting go of on a piece of duct tape, stick it to the bottom of their shoe, and then "dance out their demons." Due to the success of DOYD, Phutureprimitive announced that they will continue to incorporate the game on future tours.
