Released Dec 16th 2022

12" Vinyl: mathisruffing.bandcamp.com/album/skybox

Mathis Ruffing’s Transatlantic debut cuts to the chase. This is getaway music, music designed to vaporise your long-dormant adrenal glands. ‘Skybox’ is made up of tracks that surge like quicksilver through veins, pulsing, flexing, relentlessly disciplined in execution. These tunes are crystalline and shimmering, eight sleek and streamlined club constructs rendered with what feels like the precision-engineering of some advanced alien DAW.

Opener ‘Ultranova’ hits like a cyborgian headbutt and refuses to let up. It’s followed by the one-two punch of the title track and ‘Hitherto’, which install cooling, gaseous pads and synths within breakneck drum&bassian exoskeletons. ‘Crater Edge’ and closer ‘Raytraced’ offer cryochamberesque respite from the cold-blooded fury enclosed within this release — well-earned breathing room in an album that takes hold with crisp and calculated force. Pure focus.

We stand for inclusivity and diversity in every direction, but are aware that we do not represent this yet. It is an important matter to us, since so much of the music and culture we love was build by marginalized communities. We want to use our platform to be a reflection of these values and evolve towards a more inclusive future.

We are working on this by being actively on the lookout for emerging talents and would hereby like to encourage artists from LGBTQI+ and POC communities to get in touch with us, whether that may be for sending demos for a release, being represented by our agency or any other potential creative cooperation.
