Released on 25th January, CHRS’ ‘In The Darkness’ EP marks the fifth release on ARTCORE as the  label begins 2024 with a big signal of intent. 

After a solid start to life in 2023, Indira Paganotto’s ARTCORE imprint steams into 2024 with an  impressive release from Catania-based artist CHRS and his ‘In The Darkness’ EP. Spanning two  individually striking cuts, CHRS’ first appearance on ARTCORE isn’t for the faint-hearted and comes  packed with riveting psy-laced techno potency from start to finish.  

Kicking off with the title cut, ‘In The Darkness’ delivers high-octane energy from the outset with subtle,  ethereal nuances and nods to hardstyle throughout. A relentless stomper in its own right, it features  a wave of differing scenes, peaks, and troughs that keep you on your toes and guessing what’s coming  next around every corner.  

‘Sharp Blade’ completes the release in style, bringing together multi-genre influences effortlessly,  fusing psytrance, breakbeat and hardstyle. An exciting blend of celestial undertones and hard-hitting  trancey grooves, its riveting combination of pumping drums and low-end drive alongside coarse  electronic musicality make it an undeniable signature piece for the ARTCORE collection.
