UPDATE 13:

feeder sound premiere: Incolor – Don’t breakbeat my heart

Extending for just a bit over ten minutes, the track displays a steady progression and a groovy balance. The breaks-inspired drumming pattern elegantly merges with a solid bassline and humming low-frequencies, while energetic synth modulations and bright background textures create a vivid story. The breakdowns leave enough space for the complementary micropatterns to be heard and carefully crafted effects are brought into focus, calibrating the whole journey with sublime precision. Grab your copy and directly support Incolor on Bandcamp.

Oana - Dimensiuni Paralele

Oana – Dimensiuni Paralele EP

Digital album released on April 20, 2020

https://oanapuciu.bandcamp.com 

 

feeder sound premiere: Sublee – Normalize

The track unfolds a spacious sound dimension built around a minimalistic structure that seems to draw influence from ambient, dub techno and breakbeat at the same time. The crisp syncopated drumming pattern leads the ever-evolving background atmosphere while subtle bubbling effects, elegant panning and birds chirping make the piece perfect for introspective states of mind.

On the other hand, the other cuts revolve around a more uplifting feeling bringing forward driving percussive elements elegantly combined with immersive textures and warm sounds. Explore the release in more depth and directly support Sublee on Bandcamp.

https://suciu.bandcamp.com

 

feeder sound premiere: VincentIulian – journ31

“Hi! This is a track based on the intertwining of a deep bassline, modulated percussion and harmonies which keep the 4/4 rhythm going. It transmits a specific state of dreaming and meditation for the current period in which we can focus more on audition and less on rhythmic manifestation.” – VincentIulian

Make sure you discover the other cuts VincentIulian has been working on recently and support him directly on Bandcamp. Also, remember the importance of staying home in order to contribute to the fight against this threat we’re all facing right now, hoping that everything will soon come to an end.

“Previously unreleased music” – Mihigh

https://mihigh.bandcamp.com/album/r-e-b-e-l-b-l-u-e-s 

 

feeder sound premiere: AK41 (Kozo & Dan Andrei) – Ghetto Update

Designed with a strong warping bassline in focus, resonant background frequencies, eerie synth arrangements and breakbeat-influenced drumming, the cut reveals an immersive sound, perfect for dim lightened dancefloors. The breakdown leaves enough space for the spiralling effects to be heard more clearly while the modulated vocal samples add even more depth to the whole journey.

From driving compositions to abstract rhythms, trippy patterns, ambient soundscapes and intricate layering, this release has it all so we invite you to personally discover each and every track while being able to directly support the duo on Bandcamp. Enjoy!

Jay Bliss - Unreleased Works (2012 - 2017)

feeder sound premiere: Direkt – Past Self

The track brings forward an uplifting composition that slowly reveals itself and displays a constant progression throughout. The solid drumming and the phat bassline flow steadily alongside warm background textures and swinging synth arrangements, creating a spacious and organic atmosphere that has enough balance to make the cut perfect for the club. We’ll definitely hear this one on the dancefloors once the lockdown comes to an end!

Sensek - Endoscope

Released on March 16, 2020

https://sensek.bandcamp.com 

 

feeder sound premiere: Andrei Ciubuc – Scratch my pitch up

“These tracks ware made in a time when I was in Jamaica laying down the foundations of Draganenii” – Andrei Ciubuc

Hip-hop scratching, reggae music elements, vocal cuts featuring Lee “Scratch” Perry, a solid bassline and a driving syncopated beat, this track has it all. The combination can barely be classified as techno and that’s exactly what makes it so interesting. At the core, we find that specific flavour that can make anyone on the dancefloor shake, while the overall arrangement evokes the Jamaican dubplate cutting technique.

https://andreiciubuc.bandcamp.com

 

Christopher Ledger - Deceptive Afterglow EP

Christopher Ledger – Deceptive Afterglow EP

Amphia 021 is narrated by Christopher Ledger, who subtly undertakes us into different corners of the electronic music field.
The record provides 4 dance-oriented tracks, with moments of introspection, a state of mind in which one does not fear to explore their inner gloomy parts.

http://amphiarecords.bandcamp.com

 

feeder sound premiere: LIZZ – Deep in modulation

We first heard the cut at Sunwaves 23 and we were just wondering when will this be released. Well, that moment has arrived. Encompassed in a 10 minutes-long journey, the composition smoothly builds on itself, revealing the layers one by one. The steady-paced percussion and the solid bassline lead an ever-evolving synth pattern that has a subtle progressive feeling embedded into it while the background textures remain warm and provide an introspective state of mind, making it perfect for the after-hours.

We invite you to discover the other tracks yourself, knowing that the album brings forward an elegant combination of deep and spacious microhouse sounds, as well as a couple of more energetic pieces. Get the album and directly support Lizz.

feeder sound premiere: Barac – Mystical, for those who don’t understand magical

Barac‘s music is never easy to express through words because his tracks lead to a state of mind which results from a combination of contrasting sounds and frequencies that triggers an emotional reaction. Using a multitude of overlapping textures filled up by rhythmical patterns, “Mystical, for those who don’t understand magical” describes a series of events happening in an organised microcosmos.

“Well, through music, I try to give people a good feeling, to make them dance, I try to move people through the groove of the pieces, not through aggression. At the same time, I want people to embark on a journey, both mentally and emotionally. In conclusion, I try to combine all experiences: emotional, mental, physical and social, if I can. I am inspired by nature a lot.” – Mihai Pol
