Press Info:
While keeping a relatively low profile, 9beats continues to provide his highly distinctive sound. ‘Lucid Dream’ is a collage of blippy ambient atmospheres and super deep grooves, in which it’s easy to get lost and dance. A collection of brainy and ethereal cuts that will find its way into the most obscure clubs or serve as your perfect space trip OST.

Press Info:
It pulses and glows distantly. It eludes me, slides further away. There is an aurora just over the horizon, behind the peaks. I am in an open space, a plane expands on all sides. I stand on a plateau and the earth rises up before my eyes. Hardened lava or the metamorphosed oceanic floor thrusts upwards. Zenithal. Now I see: all matter is vibrating, always, but on a scale that wasn’t perceivable before. Lights resonate on the brink of my vision. Sound grows and I can no longer locate my body in space. My limbs expand, coalesce, mell with the air in a regular pulse. I radiate. If nature is an infinite sphere, then its center is everywhere, coinciding with me. Direction is irrelevant. I vacillate, I ascend a perpetually spiralling helix. I pace the strands and strains of existence. When I stand still the helix continues to unfurl beneath me. I evolve upwards. Particles click in and out of being. In here there’s no need for eyes.

What used to be my body is now only movement itself, a flow of sounds in fleeting waves. I amplify, refine, diffuse. In this space, nothing can be named. Individual forms no longer exist. All matter expands and contracts together. Breathes in and out. This is crystalline immersion. This is the realisation that a true void exists nowhere, not in nature nor in the mind.

Cordova
(Hydrangea Remix)

Press Info:
“NORITE strikes back with “Hermeticism”, a captivating EP by Kiev-based Bohdan. On remix duties are Taapion Records head-honcho AWB and deep techno priestess Hydrangea.

“Overflöd” starts off with subtle percussion variations and a muffled arpeggiated synth on top of a heady kick-bass combo, providing an almost aquatic sound. Filtered pads and horns add to the soothing atmosphere.

Whereas the original track develops organically, AWB choses a more looming version. Haunted choirs and broken beats lurk into darker territories. Gloomy accents are joined by a mix of hypnotic details taking the listener on an esoteric journey all the way through.

On the flipside, “Cordova” is taking a slightly different route. A steady kick drum ensures an uplifting tempo, while the sub bass tempers with a deeper groove. Celestial and eerie synths provide harmonious ambient soundscapes.

Hydrangea’s take on “Cordova” slowly takes off with a swift and reverbing snare drum on an oozing kick drum. Alongside droning noise washes, Hydrangea layers blissful and ethereal pads. With her stunning approach and unique sense of detail, the French producer offers a very compelling interpretation.”

Never Think About It, Thanks
(Vâyu Remix)

Press Info:
When Shkedul came up with this 2-tracker, it really was a no-brainer! “Unthought Dream” starts the EP in full force combining energetic drums and echoed stabs, for a serious club banger. “Never think about it, thanks” goes a bit deeper, with a relentless kick-bassline combo. The hihats are keeping the energy high while moody pads in the background add to the haunting atmosphere.

Alongside these two gems, you will find a cinematic orchestration from Paris-based and close friend Boskøw, plus a deep and dubby variation from our mainstay Vâyu.

Recent releases may have given hints that NORITE was just about deep techno, here is the proof that we can be much more.
