Представляем релиз маэстро FTRRLT @future_reality

Традиционно в фокусе FTRRLT джангл, гэрридж и дабстеп, которые замешаны с различными гранями электроники. Характерной особенностью саунда артиста можно назвать винтажность, отражающую влияние золотой эпохи artcore / intelligent jungle и uk garage. Музыка Дениса многослойна – она соткана из джазовых мотивов, олдскульных вокальных r & b сэмплов, гипнотичной атмосферы, органики перкуссии, сочных и искусных вкраплений скретчей и имеет чувственную окраску и мелодичность. Ювелирно собранная ритм-секция отличается фирменной мягкостью и вместе с объёмным басом уверенно держат грув. Всё это наполняет музыку FTRRLT теплотой и ностальгией. При этом выверенные пропорции бадбойской забористоти и фанковой ритмичности не позволяют груву раствориться в атмосфере. К слову, на дабстеп номере вайб микса разворачивается в более минималистичную, тёмную и каноничную сторону жанра. 

Мы фанаем от творчества FTRRLT с момента знакомства с ним в 2020-м на просторах SoundCloud. Все эти годы треки Дениса регулярно звучат на наших танцах. Микс предваряет выход на Дабре 4-трекового релиза FTRRLT “WHATSGOINGONGUYS?!”, который ждал своего часа и появится в сети 17 октября. Уже сейчас вы можете послушать сэмплер релиза в SoundCloud и сделать предзаказ на бэндкэмпе, где мы эксклюзивно опубликуем релиз уже в эту пятницу, 10 октября.

Introducing a release from maestro FTRRLT @future_reality

FTRRLT traditionally focuses on jungle, garage, and dubstep, blended with various facets of electronica. A distinctive feature of the artist's sound is its vintage quality, reflecting the influence of the golden era of artcore/intelligent jungle and UK garage. Denis's music is multilayered – woven from jazz motifs, old-school R&B vocal samples, hypnotic atmospheres, organic percussion, and rich and skillful scratching, it possesses a sensual and melodic quality. The meticulously assembled rhythm section boasts a signature softness and, together with the voluminous bass, confidently maintains the groove. All this imbues FTRRLT's music with warmth and nostalgia. At the same time, the carefully crafted proportions of badboy intensity and funky rhythms prevent the groove from dissolving into the atmosphere. Incidentally, the dubstep number takes the mix's vibe to a more minimalist, dark, and iconic side.

We've been fans of FTRRLT's work since discovering him on SoundCloud in 2020. Denis's tracks have been a regular feature at our dances all these years. The mix precedes the release of FTRRLT's four-track album "WHATSGOINGONGUYS?!," which has been on hold for a while and will be available online on October 17th. You can already listen to a sampler of the release on SoundCloud and pre-order it at bandcamp, where we'll be exclusively releasing it this Friday, October 10th.

Any conversation about local producers with the potential for a global audience should feature Fader Cap (FKA Sedgwick). Hailing from Ballarat and now based in Melbourne, the producer/DJ is a bona fide studio head crafting electronic music soaked in hard-hitting electro elements, classic house motif's and warm, ethereal ambient soundscapes. When he's not DJing or performing live club sets on his extensive hardware collection, he looks after the daily operations of the very much favoured Potatoheadz imprint. It's a label releasing the kind of music that will be considered timeless in the not-too-distant future. Sit back and enjoy the sci-fi world of Fader Cap.
