Skylines
Release Date: February 12, 2016
© 2016 Keith Richie

Skylines is a cinematic electronic journey that explores the architecture of sound through a global lens—an immersive album inspired by the skylines of iconic cities around the world.

Blending elements of electronic rock, synthwave, and dark synthpop, composer Keith Richie crafts an atmospheric tribute to nine cities—each track echoing the energy, emotion, and identity of its urban muse. From the rainy pulse of “Seattle Walk” to the neon-tinted melancholy of “Goodbye Dubai” and the chaotic haze of “Lost in Beijing,” Skylines invites listeners to travel without moving.

This isn’t just a sonic travelogue—it’s a fusion of geography and emotion. Each composition evokes the sensation of standing beneath towering structures, feeling the movement of life around you, and absorbing the invisible rhythm of the city itself.

The album features exclusive versions of fan-favorite singles including “Seattle Walk,” “Lost in Beijing,” and “Goodbye Dubai,” all reimagined as part of a cohesive global experience.

Whether you're drawn to lush synthesizer textures or inspired by the spirit of travel, Skylines offers a powerful soundscape that stretches across continents—and deep into the imagination.

Windy City

Hypnotic Circuits 1z

Distant Destruction

He traipsed around the empty streets of the dilapidated town, cutting a lonely, somewhat ghostly figure. He sighed, his shoulders heavy. Everyone he knew had gone. Moved on to pastures new. He missed them dearly. Missed the laughter, the fun.

Wandering up one of the side streets, he realised he'd stumbled into unfamiliar territory. "How odd," he muttered to himself, curiously. "I've never been up here before." As he meandered further up the cobbled street his ears pricked up. A beat carried on breeze and down towards him. Where was it coming from? He followed it, like a hound follows a scent, until he caught it. He stopped outside what appeared to be an old tavern, nervously and cautiously he pushed the door ajar. Joyous laughter and music filled the room. He stood staring in awe and began to cry tears of happiness.

Time to take things down a notch...Hungarian San Laurentino has accomplished 12“ maxis on a bunch of tier-1 imprints like Let's Play House, Electric Minds, Mathematics and Live At Robert Johnson.
His distinctive, charming style of electronic music, hovers somewhere between Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre and Alan Vega's Suicide.

Named after the capital and largest city of Suriname, this track is like a peaceful boat ride down river into the heart of the jungle. A welcome slice of escapism!

There was a strange flash which appeared in the mist up above as the night sky burnt a fragrant orange glow in the heat of the morning. It were as if some vast, sprawling supervoid had opened up to cause doom and disgrace to humanity which lived down below. A beast had awoken in the sky and there was a mysterious sense of warmth which hung with ominous presence in the air. This might be what hell felt like to those stuck beneath but whilst lost in this beautiful dream he was in heaven...

DJ Nature follows up 2018’s ‘Ultimate Delusion’ EP with another set of pure heaters for Futureboogie.  

The Bristol born DJ and producer, also known to many as Nature Boy, comes with an exemplary track record, but that’s to be expected from one of the scene’s early pioneers.  Releases for Golf Channel Recordings, Jazzy Sport and Ruff Disco Records are considered true classics, and rightly so!

Breezy MPC house jams of the highest quality, ‘Flutter’ manages to fuse David Lynch style pads and earthy vocals with a marching rhythm, whilst ‘A Moment’ gets cosmically charged with a spiralling modular lick over a chugging guitar hook and spacey chords.

NB’s Mix of Siliconada goes straight for the jugular, with looping disco rhythms and off kilter jazz licks, whilst the Original Version lays heavy and disorientating synth work down for a killer techno injection.

As always, DJ Nature delivers a unique and distinctive sound that is often imitated but never bettered!

For ØEN Records 13th release we bring you the debut EP by Danish producer En Anden. En Anden is the output of the DJ, Lazer. Wanting to express a simplistic and naive sound, he has taken inspiration from Italo Disco's quirky synthesizer themes and 90's house tight drum and stripped-down productions. With the EP "Ting", En Anden perfects the subtle art of making tracks, where everything stand still, but is still evolving with small waves, connotations and intermissions. The EP is rounded off with a remix by local talent DJ Popup and released digitally with a limited edition poster and t-shirt made by T L S.

PREMIERE: En Anden - En Anden Ting
