Singles & remixes taken from the forthcoming Zuke album "Come Closer" - released 13th Dec 2024 on Loop.

Zuke - Singles

Loop are excited to welcome electronic musician Zuke - aka Ed Zuccollo to the family with the release of his new single ‘Voyager’. The Wellington-based artist has built a cult-following in the underground electronic scene for his dynamic hybrid live/DJ sets and an ability to tell a story through music. The track is the first single taken from his upcoming debut album.

The single ‘Voyager’ is named after the twin NASA space probes launched in 1977 to explore the outer solar system. Onboard those crafts is a “Golden Record”, various greetings and recordings that tell the story of our planet, a message in a bottle tossed into the cosmic ocean. ‘Voyager’ includes the greeting “hello from the children of planet earth” - serving as an intro to the celestial sound that is Zuke.

Densely layered, uplifting and lush with big synth sounds, ‘Voyager’ showcases Zuke’s unique production style, combining vintage synths and analogue equipment. The release includes the Downtempo/Organic House remix by Sanoi & Zuke, which highlights the emotive elements of the original melody.

‘Voyager’ is the first single from Zuke’s his long awaited debut album, set for release late 2024. Elements of jungle, dubstep, downtempo, house, and ambient field recordings fuse together, creating a blend of melodic beauty and deep bass with a human touch. Over the next few months, Loop will release a series of singles, remixes, and alternate versions, showcasing the diversity of this artist.

Voyager

Hyperion was a Greek Titan, son of Earth and Sky, father of Sun, Moon and the Dawn. My understanding of mythology represents mystery, wonder and awe of natural phenomena but also our desire to understand, and in doing so we tell very human stories which connect us in shared understanding, to each other and also to nature. These stories are also like time capsules into the minds of humans past. 
I am a big fan of layering light and dark together. The breakbeats, deep bass and reeses converging together in the second drop with emotive piano chords really do that for me. The track ended up this spacious, deep quarter-time thing with a decent jungle influence. The moment the breakbeats enter is this kind of bridge section where the bass switches up to 808s and there are all these fragments of percussion and other layered breaks in there. That section is really introducing the jungle element, and is the most ‘jungle’ part of the album, a bit of a nod to my jungle influence.

Hyperion

This soothing reinterpretation of 'Hyperion' delves deeper into melancholy and nostalgia, highlighting the subtlety and depth of expression on my primary instrument, the piano. The natural sounds of playing softly—gentle creaks of the piano stool, quiet shuffling—add to the intimate atmosphere. Recorded during a rainstorm, I doubled down on coziness by gently layering in recordings I’d made of light rain and the crackling of the fireplace in the house where I grew up. Fans of Nils Frahm’s evocative piano recordings will appreciate the emotional depth and texture throughout.

PREMIERE: Zuke - How We Met

New Zealand-based electronic producer @Zukebeats (Ed Zuccollo) releases the 3rd single ‘How We Met’, from his forthcoming debut album Come Closer (out 13 Dec).

A lush fusion of downtempo and organic house, layered with deep ambient chords and elements of acid, the single also features a remix by Nourish, the newly formed duo of longtime friends and collaborators Katie Double and Paige Julia. Nourish combines Katie's musical artistry on harp and electronic instrumentation, with Paige's experience in crafting dancefloor-driven beats. This remix marks the first official release under the Nourish alias.

“We took our favorite elements from the original track, slowed them right down, and added our own bass, drums, and percussion in line with our style,” says Paige of Nourish.

BAILE’s 3rd volume of Ambient Selections attempts to channel springtime in upstate NY. The villages are thawing and the bitter cold is giving way to warmth. There’s a joy in it but a bittersweet memory of snowfall. Melancholy pads and delicate pianos mirror the slow thaw in the northeastern US on ‘Cold Spring’ – a song titled after an aptly named town an hour north of New York City. Static and foley sounds blend to paint a portrait of the amtrak rushing along the Hudson river as ice floes melt.

Quantum Stillness

🌌 MEET ME IN ETERNITY 🌌

An odyssey beyond time, crafted by SYNTHTOPIA x QVANTVM

This album is a deep, cinematic journey through the cosmos — a meditation on infinity, light, and the eternal resonance of existence. Built from evolving synth pads, warm analog textures, and ethereal orchestral layers, each piece unfolds like a star-born hymn: expansive, transportive, and timeless.

From the shimmering stillness of THE QUIET BETWEEN THE SUNS to the soaring radiance of FIELDS OF STARLIGHT and the transcendental call of ARC OF INFINITY, this is music designed to dissolve boundaries between the human spirit and the infinite universe.

These soundscapes invite higher consciousness, deep reflection, and a sense of home among the stars. It is not just an album — it is a gateway.

✨ Enter the cosmos. Meet me in eternity. ✨

STABORN RADIANCE

Following a trail at twilight by an active creek. The blending of the sounds of the forest and birds  all vivacious and quivering with life.

The Endless Trail

An exploratory journey into the physicality of deep bass with a taste for the cinematic, aimed at unleashing the immersive power of large sound-systems.
