‘Laid’ is about our relationship with time and the way we experience connections, goals and anxieties. Perhaps time is our most ancient enemy and social media has reshaped it for us. I'm suggesting we could stop for a while, enjoy each other’s presence, touch and closeness.

(WASHINGTON, D.C.) — Microdose, the latest release from Washington DC-based producers “Shades Of Play”— aka Derek Tucker & Felipe Rivera— is a moody, exploratory trip through divergent shades of experimental house and techno.

The 5-track EP flexes Tucker and Rivera’s taste for introspective, minimalist, and emotive modes of dance music. In Microdose, the duo delivers a thoughtful range of tracks that prioritize experimentalism and emotion without sacrificing dance floor power.

In opening track Gazuza, a haunting, hypnotic melody is cut against a tough bassline and echoing vocal elements. What follows is pure, unadulterated, deep house music magic.

It goes without saying that house and techno heads love a slow burn. NYC Lovin is just that: an ode to the minimalist, edgy house music stylings found in Brooklyn warehouses and Manhattan clubs.

In Microdose, Tucker and Rivera explore a distinctly raw, primal, and psychedelic side of techno. Marked by complex rhythms and eerie vocals, the track is designed to bring dance floors to a frenzy.

Things lighten up a bit in No Promises, a sparkling, uplifting house track that pairs sophisticated percussion with dreamy soundscapes. Its tribal-inspired sound is ripe for steamy summer dance floors and sunny afternoon sessions alike.

Inspired by the likes of Floating Points, closing track Mirrors and Masks is an intricate, commanding piece of progressive techno; a cinematic secret weapon for building dance floor euphoria.

About Shades of Play: Bringing together Midwestern Native American, Black, and South American cultures, Shades Of Play is a Washington DC-based duo comprised of longtime friends Derek Tucker and Felipe Rivera. With sounds ranging from heavy, pulsating, primal rhythms to progressive rock and jazz-influenced fusions; their sounds are a direct result of their ancestral roots and explore the broader spectrums of electronic, house, and techno music.

CLN is Colin Vincent's new electronic music project.
A magic formula that reduces his first name to 3 letters and forms the initials of "C'est la nuit" evoking a passage from the long prose poem "Il n'y a plus rien" by Léo Ferré.

Colin Vincent, a jack-of-all-trades musician, comes from the alternative rock scene, with his bands Iaross and Volin. He has been interested for some time in the production of electronic music and forms in 2022 MUET, his new Chanson-electronica project.
At the same time, he created CLN where he devoted himself to purely instrumental music allowing him to experiment with rich textures using his modular synthesizers.

With his first 6-track EP, 'Les Pôles’ released at Upton Park, he laid the foundations for an aesthetic that drifts between Boards of Canada-style electronic daydreaming, heady Steve Reich-style motifs and heavy 808 bass with Trap sauce.
