PREMIERE : Rudra - Manifest [Movement Limited]
BUY : https://www.beatport.com/label/movement-limited/92546
Release date : 19/04/2024

Tash's Movement Limited welcomes Rudra to the label for his debut EP. As one of India's longest running progressive house artists, Rudra has been a fixture of the genre's scene for well over a decade. First emerging in 2012, the Kolkata resident has steadily been making a name for himself with a string of well-crafted records that present a cutting edge sound. 3rd Avenue, aboriginal, Juicebox Music and Mango Alley have all been landing spots for Rudra's elusive sound, while he continues to earn support from progressive music's top tastemakers. Now, fresh off a remix for Arcedian to open 2024, Rudra presents his first original productions of the year, making his Movement Limited debut with ‘Way Forward'.

Beginning with 'Way Forward' Rudra puts a firm focus on the dance floor which sets the tone for the EP. Full of rejuvenating energies, the Kolkata resident expertly blends punchy kick drums and electric grooves with flashing percussion and chunky bass stabs. An array of orbiting effects serve to set tension as the first act evolves, eventually revealing an off kilter lead which steals the air. Casting a darker monochrome over the journey, it's a wave of mind-bending modulation which ultimately sparks a magical dancefloor moment as the main break approaches. Melting down to a set of prophetic tones across the interlude, Rudra's keen dancefloor sensibility shines here, as a scaled back drop carefully reassembles the parts for a grooved out conclusion.

Rounding out the release are the hard hypnotic qualities of ‘Manifest'. Tight, compact and bursting with ultrasonic energies, the track's first movement is built around quirky hooks, flickering arps and a grinding drive which carries energy into the main break. Rudra's creative attitude takes hold as the interlude evolves, with unpredictable synth mutations and buzzing effects eventually giving way to a hopeful melody which reveals a lighter monochrome, one which pushes onwards to a finale that is equal parts cosmic and thought-provoking.

microCastle’s first offering of 2024 welcomes Adrian Roman back to the label for his second artist showcase. Hailing from Spain, Adrian Roman first rose to prominence in 2021 with a string of superlative releases which redefined his sound, resulting in an aesthetic that was both cutting edge and effortlessly cool. Fully formed within the creative confines of his Castello studio, Adrian’s first microCastle project, 2022’s‘ Disturbing the Perception’ succeeded in showcasing his inventive approach to composition, while remaining club-effective, and in turn earning play from Aera, Fideles and Jimi Jules, amongst others. Moving forward the next eighteen months have proved to be impactful for the young Spaniard, recording standout projects for AZZUR and Sum Over Histories, releases which continued to build on his creative acumen, while remaining in the playlists of underground tastemakers Ame and Dixon. With 2024 beginning with Adrian’s latest Sum Over Histories vehicle ‘Oratorical Ability’, the Spaniard now makes a welcome return to microCastle with a six-track showcase entitled ‘This Is What I Was For A Moment’.

From the opening monochromes of ‘Le Sabbat’ Adrian’s craftsmanship reveals itself across this slow-burning piece, one where grating growls, granular flares and panoramic arps ultimately set the pace for the groove-centric ‘Customized Reality’. It’s here where Adrian puts a greater focus on the dancefloor, marrying hopeful vocal phrasing and silky chord stabs for a rejuvenating experience, while a drum-driven drop ultimately charts the course for a finale of deconstructed sonics and post-rave bliss. The haywire electricity of ‘Faces of Belmez’ finds the Spaniard once again flexing his creative muscles, as corrugated bleeps and cataclysmic rhythms provide a vast sense of space, creating the ultimate backdrop for distorted synths to propel choppy rhythms into dark underground passages, and perhaps onto some of the world’s most adventurous dancefloors.

The collection’s midway point is marked by the hypno-architecture of ‘Mind Design’. Trickling reverberations and long sighs of tonal tension wade through its pulsating framework, with frayed effects and thumping rhythms submerged beneath a buzzing panoramic glow. Played by Ame and sitting as one of the project's most enigmatic tracks is ‘TAGDI’ (They Are Gonna Do It). Tinted with contemplative synths and guttural vocals, Adrian’s unique emotionality peaks here, as he crafts a low-slung, slow-building dystopian romance, all while weaving in cerebral manipulations for an unforgettable ride. The mist breaks instantly on the collection’s final piece, as your thrusted into the muscular grooves of ‘Fear Track’. Horrifying vocal stabs strike, leaving the gauzy purple skies of ‘TAGDI’ behind for a more robust romp, one where anabolic basslines, retro-arps and off kilter percussion bring the release to a feverish peak. A fitting conclusion to a diverse collection of music, one where Adrian creates a journey that speaks to the complexities of life against an immersive and challenging backdrop.
