Thinking

My biggest inspiration for writing music are my own experiences. That is usually the catalyst that pushes me to start a new track. Countless late night chats at shows, silly moments in my daily life, or special moments that I wish I could frame and hang on my wall. When I open up Ableton, I pretend I’m writing the soundtrack for a specific slice of life.

My creative choices for this EP were guided by a few key things. I wanted to combine two worlds I thoroughly enjoy…bass music and hip hop. That’s always something that gets me hyped. Another guiding creative force, is this dragon I’ve been chasing since 2016 when I first heard Kursa’s track, Pick Em Up. This tune, with it’s pounding hip hop drums, invokes a darkness I seek in left field music and tried to tap into with this EP. This tune was a staple in my sets for years as it was both something that usually perked a dancer’s attention, while also doubling as a DJ tool to dip into bass music or footwork. With trends in dance music coming and going, I remain obsessed with this combination. Lastly, I tried to create m a s s I v e baselines that would make teenage me bass face while yelling “ooooh” and gripping onto the rail at the front of any rave. As this started to shape into a full project, I decided I was not gonna hold myself to rigid deadlines and take my time to craft this album out until I felt satisfied with the end result.

One time, Rau and I were at a music festival and I hung my shoes under one of the stages. They stayed there throughout the weekend, safe and undisturbed. The photo of my shoes hanging there makes us giggle and we turned it into a missing poster for this EP. Inspired by a story we made up of a raver that fell in love with footwork so passionately that they had to take their shoes off due to how hot their feet felt while dancing, never to be seen again (the shoes).

No Patterns - Tenebris EP

JUNO EXCLUSIVE - 27/12/19

WORLDWIDE RELEASE - 03/01/20

No Patterns - a producer revered for technical excellence and immense sound design by those in the know - returns for his 4th release on Incurzion Audio, Tenebris EP.

A talented and unique producer, No Patterns has been developing his style and improving his quality measurably with every release, and this is one is no exception. No Pattern's signature sound remains constant, but evident are his efforts to push the boundaries of what he is capable of.

Each track is distinctly unique, from a hard-hitting banger with major sound design to a beautifully balanced and calming liquid track, and rounding off the EP with a dark and gloomy atmospheric piece. We are honoured to have No Patterns return to the label once again, and we are very excited for what is to come for this rising star.
