Interlude

Summer OST

Rat is back with a jazzy, dub techno ep. JzzTch is decorated nicely with jazz trumpets, and synth chords. Its deep but grooving nicely. Esser is more to the point with powerful synth lines and punchy kick drum. The last track is the Atesh K. remix of the JzzTech. It's a groovy, percussive version of the original.

Get What You Want (Absolut Anthem)

Hailing from the island of Cyprus in the Mediterranean Sea, Andreas’ love for music and sound was expressed at a young age. He picked up the guitar and started numerous bands, growing strong as a performer in the local scene. 
Experimenting with guitar pedals and sound is what pushed him into pursuing a degree in Sound Engineering (BSc Hons). Being constantly exposed to synthesis, digital manipulation and psychoacoustics, pushed Andreas into exploring his identity as Rat and electronic music production. He found himself sonically in London during his post-graduate degree (MA) in Audio Production in 2012. Since then Rat has been constantly releasing music on various local and international labels with undertones of dub, techno and garage. 
Rat’s productions have a distinct complexity in both sound design and synthesis; a skill developed through his studies and professional work as a sound designer, as well as poly-rhythmic and convoluted rhythmic patterns; an influence and homage to his progressive rock roots. 
As Rat never picked up DJing, he decided to putt his technical know-how to good use, and started playing live sets using a variety of analogue synthesizers, his guitar and Ableton Live as a sequencer and workstation. His live sets are an emotional rollercoaster spanning from deep sentiment all the way to floor stomping rhythms.
