Starburst

This is Lay By Secrets EP, and nothing is sacred anymore.

Track One: “Lay By Secrets”
This opener doesn’t start — it surfaces. Like a body in a lake, bloated with time and truth. Submerged synth pads swell with sorrow, sleek and slick like oil on motel bedsheets. There's a strange tenderness in the way it builds — cautious, hungry, melancholy — until the beat hits, clean and precise like a surgeon who’s stopped caring about your anesthetic.

This is progressive house carved from late-night conversations that should have stayed buried. It’s the audio equivalent of rereading an old love letter on bad drugs. The melodies don’t soar — they stalk. The tension never explodes — it just tightens, like a noose made of silk and second chances.

You don’t dance to this. You relive to it.

Wood Drift - Lay By Secrets

WOOD DRIFT – LAY BY SECRETS EP
FEATURING: “Lay By Secrets,” “Access Within,” “Deep Regrets”
RAY OF LIGHT RECORDS / RELEASE #068

Some records hold your hand. This one wraps both around your throat and leans in close to whisper all the things you’ve been trying to forget. Wood Drift has returned — slinking out of the shadows like some backroom mystic with a USB full of contraband frequencies — and they have brought a map of your inner rot set to rhythm.

Track Three: “Deep Regrets”
Aptly named. This one hurts in all the right places. It's a post-rave confession booth for sins not yet committed. “Deep Regrets” doesn’t hit hard — it hits true. A gentle, woozy kick drives the track like a heartbeat trying to slow down after the comedown. The pads float. The bass purrs. Everything sounds like it’s been dusted in neon ash and left out in the cold to shiver.

It’s romantic in a twisted way — like calling your ex just to hear them breathe. This is a slow burn, a quiet scream, a track that makes you feel seen in a way you didn’t ask for and can’t deny.

This isn’t chillout music. This is the reckoning. This is what plays in the void between who you were and who you pretended to be.

WOOD DRIFT – “AURA”
FFGR124 // FALL FROM GRACE RECORDS

FIRST SINGLE FROM THE FORTHCOMING ALBUM 'TEN YEARS AFTER/

DEMI + DENNIS RETURN TO THE EDGE OF THE WORLD WITH A SHIMMERING HYMN TO TIME, DIRT, AND TRANSCENDENCE

There are few names in the underworld of real-deal electronic music that have left as deep and lasting a scorch mark as Demi. From the high-holy temples of SOS — alongside Desyn Masiello and Omid 16B — to soundtracking sacred rituals for global insitutes such as Womb, Warung, Renaissance, Ministry of Sound, Balance, and every label that knew how to spell elevation, Demi has never played the industry game. He set fire to the rulebook and carved a career from the ashes, one beat at a time. Now, with longtime co-conspirator Dennis, he returns under their sonic blood pact Wood Drift, and they’re not whispering anymore — they’re summoning.
And what they’ve summoned on “Aura”, the lead single from their upcoming album Ten Years After, is nothing short of a spiritual autopsy of the last quarter-century of electronic music. A sprawling, burned-out-late-night-on-a-beach-somewhere-in-Greece kind of track. One foot in the void, the other grinding through sand and memory.
This isn’t music. This is weather.

“Aura” doesn’t begin — it emerges, like a fog rolling in off a distant ocean, carrying whispers of things you thought you buried in ‘04. A glacial downtempo heartbeat pulses beneath flickering melodies that sound like they were pulled from a half-forgotten dream you weren’t supposed to wake up from. It’s melodic house in a silk kimono, stinking of incense and after-hours regret. A groove so slow, so measured, it feels like the earth itself is exhaling.
And then the textures creep in — pads that bloom like bruises, arpeggios spiralling through warm delay, a bassline like a lover you know will ruin you but you can’t stop calling anyway.

This is progressive music in its purest, rawest form — no tacky drops, no cookie-cutter breakdowns, just evolution and emotion. The sound of time unfolding. The sound of earned experience — hard-won and scarred with memory.
You can hear every sleepless night in this track. Every sunrise set. Every plane delay. Every warehouse. Every dancefloor breakdown. This is music made by people who lived it, bled for it, and never stopped.

Demi and Dennis are not chasing trends — they are the goddamn current.
Over the last 25 years, they’ve done more than craft tracks — they’ve built worlds. Demi alone helped birth the sound of modern progressive through the holy trinity of SOS, sculpting tectonic grooves that brought dancefloors to their knees with nothing but EQ wizardry and an uncompromising ear. And now, on Fall From Grace Records — itself a cathedral for misfit angels and fallen gods — they’re reclaiming the throne with dusty elegance and spectral beauty.
“Aura” is the first candle lit on what’s sure to be a full-blown exorcism: their upcoming full-length “Ten Years After”, a title that smells like revenge, memory, and redemption all in one breath.
This isn’t a return. It’s a reckoning.

Fall From Grace Records knew exactly what they were doing with this 124th release. They didn't want a chart hit. They wanted a statement. And Aura is that and more — it’s a reckoning in velvet gloves. A warning shot wrapped in a lullaby.

This record isn’t for everyone. It's not meant to be.
It’s for the ones who remember.
Who still feel.
Who never stopped digging for soul in the circuits.
So light the candles. Turn the lights low.
Drop the needle, and let it bleed.
The kings are back.
And they're not here to ask for your blessing — they're here to take it.

WOOD DRIFT – “MAN OF LOVE”
 FFGR127 //
FALL FROM GRACE RECORDS 


FOURTH SINGLE FROM THE FORTHCOMING ALBUM 'TEN YEARS AFTER'  THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO THE BLEEDING HEARTS OF PROGRESSIVE HOUSE
 
You don’t get a title like Man Of Love without carrying the weight to back it up. You don’t wear it unless you’ve lost more than you’ve won, felt more than you’ve spoken, and bled every  beat into the dirt. 

The fourth single in the slow-burn crucifixion leading to their album “Ten Years After,” Man Of Love is not a flex — it’s a testament. A groaning, soul-heavy blend of downtempo grace and melodic tension, soaked in atmosphere and seasoned with tears. It doesn’t dance, it sways. It doesn’t beg, it confesses.
From the opening shimmer, you know this one’s different.

The synths float like regret across midnight highways. The beat thumps slow and soft, like a tired heart learning to love again. You can hear the life in it — the miles, the mistakes, the missed calls at 3AM. It’s progressive house stripped of ego, deep house filled with gravity, ambient textures whispering in your peripheral vision.
It’s music that smells like skin and memory.
You won’t hear Man Of Love at peak time in Ibiza. But you’ll hear it the morning after, when you’re coming down and looking at yourself in the mirror, wondering if love still means anything in this era of disposability.
And somewhere, between the pads and the pulse, you’ll get your answer.

Wood Drift digs even deeper — not louder, but more honest.
Man Of Love is the soundtrack to 3AM truths, post-rave reflection, and the moments no algorithm could ever understand.
This isn’t nostalgia. It’s a hymn. And it might just be the most human track they’ve made yet.

WOOD DRIFT – “HEARTACHE” 
FFGR128 // 
FALL FROM GRACE RECORDS

 FIFTH SINGLE FROM THE FORTHCOMING ALBUM TEN YEARS AFTER A SOULFUL COLLISION OF DEVOTION, DIRT, AND DELIRIUM
 
Let’s not sugarcoat it — HeartACHE isn’t a song. It’s a crime scene.
It’s what happens when two sonic veterans — Demi and Dennis, the blood-bonded duo known as Wood Drift — take 25 years of euphoric heights, failed connections, emotional graffiti, and collapsed dancefloors, and throw it all into a slow-burning furnace. What emerges isn’t pretty. It’s not supposed to be. But it’s honest — raw as a road rash kiss, delicate as a collapsing star.
This is release 128 from Fall From Grace Records, and if you’ve been paying attention, you’ll know we’re deep in the trench of their unfolding spiritual document: the upcoming album Ten Years After. With HeartACHE, the fifth prelude to that storm,
 
 Wood Drift go full tilt into the emotional wreckage — dragging us face-first into the tender, tortured, glorious mess of what it means to still believe in love, long after it’s stopped believing in you.
The track opens like a confession left on cassette. Dusty pads. Echoes of something soft before it turns sharp. The percussion doesn’t enter — it slinks in, like a guilty thought you can’t shake. There’s no dramatic drop, no self-congratulatory moment of impact. This is a track that lingers — not to impress, but to bleed.
The bassline throbs like an open wound with rhythm. The melody curls around you like smoke from the wrong kind of cigarette. It’s house music, sure — but not for the dancefloor. This is after. After the peak. After the party. After the words. It’s music for the bathroom mirror, the lonely Uber home, the glow of the sunrise through regret-soaked blinds.
And this isn’t just another entry in Wood Drift’s growing anthology of deep sonic grief — it’s a culmination. You can hear the echo of Aura’s atmosphere, the emotional slosh of Decanter, the cosmic ache of Heaven Knows, and the stripped-back prayer of Man Of Love. But this… this is different.
This is the breakdown. The fall.
And the men behind the sound? Demi, already a monument in the underground through his sacred work with SOS (alongside Desyn Masiello and Omid 16B) and game-changing contributions and beyond, isn’t trying to impress anyone. He’s not building a legacy — he is the legacy. And with Dennis, he’s not chasing youth. He’s scoring the truth — with dust under the fingernails and no filter on the mic.
 
With HeartACHE, Wood Drift hand us the cracked mirror and ask us to stare into it a little longer. It’s not an escape. It’s a confrontation. It hurts. It heals. It feels.
 
HeartACHE is not a love song. It’s a ghost story. But if you’ve ever felt too much, fallen too hard, or stayed too long — you already know how it ends.
And still… you’ll press play again.

WOOD DRIFT – “TEN YEARS AFTER”
FFGR129 // FALL FROM GRACE RECORDS

THE LONG-AWAITED DEBUT ALBUM — 25 YEARS IN THE MAKING, 10 YEARS IN THE SHADOWS, AND ONE DAMN BREATH AWAY FROM SALVATION

There are no second chances in this life — not really. Just longer hangovers, shorter highs, and the slow, aching realization that if you want to say something real, you better say it now, before the algorithms mute your soul and the kids start calling you “legacy.”
And this — this cursed, blessed, bruised, and beautiful album — is what Wood Drift has chosen to say. Welcome to Ten Years After.

It’s been five long prelude singles — Aura, Decanter, Heaven Knows, Man of Love, HeartACHE — each one like a journal entry from the edge of a nervous breakdown in surround sound. But now the vault swings open. No more teasing. No more whispers. Just the full, soul-rattling weight of the storm.

This isn’t just a collection. It’s a journey — a ghost-ridden, slow-burning, emotionally charged odyssey through progressive house, deep house, ambient, and downtempo soul. Every track is a scar, a confession, a breath held too long.

This isn’t the party. This is after the party.
This is the truth they couldn’t tell until now.

From the first inhale of On The Pulse — a slow, cinematic uncoiling of ambient tension and melodic unease — you know you’re not just listening to an album. You’re entering a confessional. The kind of record you play with your eyes closed, headphones on, and your whole chest open like a wound.

And then there’s the strange-glazed swell Galactus Tusk — a track that shouldn’t work, but does. A synth-glazed, near-psychedelic swirl that sounds like Boards of Canada having a lucid dream at Berghain. It's playful, it’s strange, it’s alive. It breaks up the introspection with just enough strut to remind you this is still dance music… sort of.

Lakeside Riviera is a golden mirage — meditative, crystalline, and pulsing like heat waves on the dashboard of memory. It doesn’t ask questions. It just exists. Serene, still — the moment between mistakes.

And then, after all the twists, the stumbles, the cinematic build — comes the encore. Caramel Dream — the final kiss, the last cigarette, the soft comedown. It’s gentle. It’s nostalgic without being desperate. A lullaby for the ones who never got a proper goodbye. Originally released back in 2022 as a single independently, this has been reworked to be featured as the encore voice.

With over 25 years shaping electronic music’s emotional core, Demi’s fingerprints are all over this — from iconic sets and compositions for Balance, Ministry of Sound and a Radio One Essential Mix with the triumvirate SOS, to the deeply personal textures that only come from living through the scenes you shape.
Ten Years After is more than a release.
It’s a requiem. A rebirth.
It’s what happens when two lifers look back at the wreckage and find a strange kind of beauty in it all. Not the triumphs, not the trophies — but the cracks. The echoes. The parts no one sees.
Ten Years After doesn’t bang — it resonates.
A slow dance with memory.
But most of all — it feels real.
