Sergio Vilas featuring Natascha Atlas - Asef {Original Mix} Stripped Digital

Dear Listener,

From the depths comes this gripping new collection of stories from Paris-based producer Davka, and Mexico City-based Leon Lobato. 

On the title track, De Profundis, the pair fuse pulsing bass kicks with electrifying hand drums to underpin ethereal vocals and melancholic synth notes. The result is a thumping journey of sound, textured and layered with hidden gems throughout each of its nearly 8-minute run time.

The inspiration for the track is Oscar Wilde’s letter to an old acquaintance, written from prison. The first half of the correspondence recalls the heyday of their extravagant lifestyles — parties, dinners, hotels. The second half documents Wilde’s discovery of his own spirituality whilst in prison as a direct result of the excesses of his former life.

If Davka and Lobato’s opener De Profundis is the regret-tinged peak of an opulent and indulgent life, then Calm is the exploration of a softer, more introspective side of life.

Pumping drums give way to lighter kicks, kissed by piano flourishes and beautiful synthetic melodies. Calm is, as the name suggests, a peaceful, hypnotic ride that is packed with depth and feeling.

It leads to the EP’s closer, Le Chant De L’Eau, a track that pushes the project into uncharted territory. The hand drums and thicker beats of ‘De Profundis’ return, but this time they are layered over enchanting melodies and the sound of a single drop of water, playing on a loop.

The track is a perfect finish to the project: sweet, alluring, and very rhythmic, intertwining all of the themes that Davka and Lobato explore on the first two tracks of the EP.

And as if that wasn’t enough, the project comes with a package of remixes from Greg Nairo, Cocho, and George X, who each apply their signature sound to the work already done by Davka and Lobato, taking the cuts in brand new, unforeseen directions. 

We hope you enjoy it.

Your affectionate friends,

Everything Will Be OK

De Profundis

LTR Premiere: Davka & Leon Lobato - De Profundis [Everything Will Be OK]

Scottish producer Tagavaka returns to Anjunadeep with his four track ‘Extrapolate EP’ - his first standalone release on the label. Despite being a fairly new name in the scene, with releases like Anjunadeep Explorations 18’s ‘Sky’ and a double A-side on Barrientos Music to his name, he has already gained support from artists including Adam Port, Lane 8 and Nora En Pure.

First heard on flagship label compilation Anjunadeep 12, title track ‘Extrapolate’ opens the EP with emotive melodies whilst ‘You Could Be The One’ and ‘Forms’ favour break-beat inspired drums. Tagavaka rounds off the EP with ‘Oxygen’, featuring cascading synths and bold vocals.

The Painter

Premiere: Alboe - Starlight [Krunk Kulture]

'Fresh off of a remix for Grimes' "My Name is Dark", producer Julien Bracht has been powering through CV19 studio seclusion on full-power, with a distinct vision for brighter days ahead. Bracht's new album, "Now Forever One," an emblem of dark analog synthwave, is set to drop July 30. 

Bracht's first solo album under his own namesake is cut with surgical precision for the shoegazing astral sound travellers who long to break out of their pandemic quarantines, and reconvene for techno-induced ascension. The album's first single, "Melancholia," and it's accompanying video, is already breaking hearts and charts. An exquisite sonic hybrid of communal revelry and profound introspection, "Now Forever One," focuses Bracht's multilayered craftsmanship on resolving this era's angst with sensory exploration and optimism.

As a lifelong drummer, Bracht's insatiable musical energy lead him to bang out his first 3 EPs within one year of first being signed in 2011-12. In 2015 he founded the band Lea Porcelain with Markus Nikolaus in London. Their hypnotic post-rock debut release in 2017, "Hymns to the Night," gained instant acclaim from UK tastemakers Lauren Laverne, Steve Lamacq and Zane Lowe, to name a few. The lads broke back onto the international stage with dates on several major festivals around Europe, including the Reading Leeds Festival, Great Escape in Brighton and Latitude. 

Rich output combined with the inclusion of live drums in his solo live sets quickly gained Bracht recognition and slots on the global tour circuit.

"Now Forever One" forges Julien Bracht's transition from techno djing, while continuing the explorations of texture and timbre over functional song structures from Lea Porcelain, to a more open-ended search for the aural sublime — the substrate on which music, life and light glide to create momentary nodes of meaning in an increasingly meaningless sociopolitical atmosphere. These are crucial themes to Bracht's process and approach. "The intention in my music is to strengthen people's awareness and minds... I want us all to gather in spirit and stick together."

The album exemplifies Bracht's hunt for elemental juxtaposition with the warm Prophet 6's sawtooth howls and bright pads against chillingly indifferent pulsing basslines and percussion. Clocking in at just under 65 minutes, "Now Forever One's" tracks are sequenced to take the listener through the full emotional arch of a 15-hour rave, with an emphasis on those moments of collective epiphany where heaving techno floors become the perfect microcosm for an idealistic and interconnected future. Interspersed with improvisational one-takes, the album submerges the listener in polyrhythmic meditations, of which "Streets" and "Nocturne" are standout examples, and soars on the vaulted synth melodies of future dance floor favourites "Melancholia" and "Dreams of Euphoria." Sascha Ring of Apparat & Moderat puts it perfectly:

"I played “Melancholia” the night I got it at Mutek Festival in Mexico City, and instantly knew it’ll shine on a big floor at the right time. It’s just the right balance of majestic melodic deepness." The sounds are both triumphant and exploratory. Greater than the sum of its parts, Bracht's latest release hints at the artist's emerging potential for nailing our moment's zeitgeist; learning to live smaller while constantly seeking higher heights. Inhabiting the fertile ground between solitary rumination and dance-floor convenance, the launch of "Now Forever One's" lunar expedition into the techno oblivion of pandemic lockdown is oddly fitting."

Sync Forward's 53rd release is here with the return of label owners Remotion, with their latest EP 'Neptune', including two original tracks and remixes by Yeröm and ODDR.

First is Neptune, a dark and ominous track with a driving arpeggio and a powerful breakdown featuring a neuro growl and off-beat LFO synth, showcasing a more sinister side of the Portuguese duo.

Next up is Danger, a progressive and energetic piece with a rolling bass and tight minimal beat with intricate percussion layers, wrapping up with a straightforward synth work, driving home this vibrant track.

Neptune's Remix comes from Belgian producer Yeröm, that presented us with a darker interpretation of the original with its echoing synths and a flawlessly produced breakdown, aiming for the darker dance floors.

Closing down the EP is ODDR's Remix of Danger, with a mesmerizing breakdown surfacing a more melodic side to the original track, featuring an 80's synth sound complementing the original track's synths.

Frenchman Leohnart makes a highly anticipated return in what is his debut on XYZ’s SOL imprint. The Montreal-based artist brings his signature introspective touch to the label with a sumptuous four-tracker. ‘One Day’ leads the EP, offering up a deep journey, which fuses tribal rhythms, delicate atmospheric touches and an emotive, entrancing synth-line.

‘Evolution’ expands on the ethereal feel with beautifully textured synth work and lush chords, building slowly with soothing atmosphere and a similarly captivating ambiance.

‘Rise & Fall’ takes a fresh turn, contrasting hope and eery tension in a beautiful arpeggiated melody that evolves throughout the track, offering up a vibrant trip to new lands.

Closing out the EP on an optimistic note is ‘Around Me’, which once again showcases sublime rhythms and intricate melodies in an uplifting finish to the release.

Leohnart - Around Me

Taken from the upcoming album 'All Else Fails' from Athens producer @stelios-vassiloudis, ‘End Transmission’ was the first on the album to be completed. While isolating in his studio during the pandemic, Vassiloudis encountered a 64-bar loop of ambient drones and harmonic washes while exploring mountains of previously unreleased projects, in search of something different.  

While what he found felt 'generic' on face value, Vassiloudis made deliberate adjustments to time signatures and the phrasing of his patterns, embracing the magical unpredictability of recording live instruments. The result is rapturous and immersive soundscape, brimming with a light sense of optimism and bursting with the colours of finding beauty in the ordinary.

Pele & Nico Stojan, the two have a distinct style, thick grooves with tech-house intentions. 'Clutching The House' is the result of their collaboration, and we are more than proud to share it with you.

'Convinced to Hustle' is exactly what it sounds like - an infectious percussion line over a deep bass groove and an open call to join the dance floor. The perfect opener for an EP, feeding our fire long into the late night.

'Shifting Down' inspires the mood only found at a hot summer open-air, organic, energetic and contagious. The bass rumbles in your chest as your feet shuffle in the dust, the sun will rise soon but until then, this moment, with this percussion and the cool vocal samples are the center of our universe.
