Label co-head Solma has undertaken the task of captaining the first voyage of Virtual Forest Records, with a 4-track EP that will drown heads in clouds and shatter dancefloors with the same ease.

Starting things off softly, i915 invites you to lay back in an alien world inhabited by strange textures and fleeting sounds. Gentle synth melodies allow the unsuspecting listener to lower their guard, but the atmosphere becomes foreboding as more intense drums make their way into the evolving soundscape, paving the way for the next track of the release.
