Origins Tapes 117 - Cáit

2023 has been a great year for Bradley Hutchings aka Guava. Alongside many successful dance singles and remixes, his self-released debut album ‘Out Of Nowhere’ is a gorgeous blend of indie electronica that steps away from his typical club focussed productions. 2024, however, sees Guava move back towards the dancefloor with his latest EP Afterglow, which drops on Faux Poly on March 8th. Since rooting himself in Berlin, Guava has drawn inspiration from across the different facets of the city, something that is strongly reflected in this release.

The opening track ‘Angel’ is a dark trip, born out of experiments with reverb and guitar harmonics influenced by UK Bass and Dubstep, an ethereal techno track described by the artist as “guitar music for Berghain”. Next up is ‘140 Drums’, an essential DJ club tool, a chopped stuttering break and hoover bass roll through a restrained but surprisingly heavy hitting finale to the EP.

‘F641’ accelerates with continuously pitching synth stabs and a rumbling low end. Inspired by F1, the track hits hard and never stops ramping up. Finally the title track ‘Afterglow’ brings a lightness and warmth to the release, delicately catchy and rooted with a bouncy house beat, the sound of Berlin in Guava’s productions is unmistakably clear.

Words from Guava:
"Putting together this EP has been a joy for me. All of the tracks are little bookmarks for the past year. I live in Berlin, and it has had an immersive effect on my music. From the grey and cold winters, trudging down a windy street in Warschauer Straße, to the hot summer in Neukolln, where the air is thick and warm, and dance music echoes off the city buildings.

PREVIEW: Guava - Afterglow [FP008]

"Unreleased Territory" evokes the allure of uncharted domains waiting to be explored, whether in the physical world or within oneself. It embodies the spirit of adventure and curiosity, beckoning individuals to venture beyond familiar boundaries into realms yet to be discovered. These unexplored territories may manifest as untapped potential, undiscovered talents, or uncharted landscapes waiting to reveal their secrets. Embracing the journey into Unreleased Territory is an invitation to embrace uncertainty, confront challenges, and uncover hidden treasures that await those brave enough to embark on the expedition of self-discovery and exploration.

In the heart of Amsterdam, on the Haarlemmerdijk, there's a small cinema called "The Movies." Modest on the outside, it reveals a warm, old-world charm inside, with rich wood paneling, soft lighting, velvet seats, and deep crimson curtains.

Luigi, known as Artist BSS, is a regular at The Movies. Born and raised in Amsterdam, he finds inspiration in the cinema's unique atmosphere. This led him to create a song titled "The Movies," a tribute that captures the theater's nostalgic beauty and timeless appeal.

This song resonated with listeners, evoking the magic of The Movies. The cinema remains a beloved gem in Amsterdam, continuing to inspire all who visit.
