about

French electronic producer Blutch is back with another supremely trippy EP “Condate” on home label Astropolis Records, featuring a remix from Azo.
This Brittany native has a broad, borderless sound that mixes up electronica, breakbeat, house and IDM with stirring emotional undercurrents that range from nostalgia to melancholy. Last year he served up his superb ‘Terre Promise’ album on the label, and once again, it combined a raft of different sounds on one majestic record. He again shows off his ability to layer captivating melodies over compelling rhythms on this fresh new EP which extends his LP released last year with a more dancefloor suite. "Condate" is the original name of the city of Rennes in Brittany, France, where he lives. A city he loves passionately. The tracks featured in this EP are mainly taken from his live act "Terre Promise". The cover artwork also comes from the audiovisual live act: a motion design work made by Romain Navier, mixing landscapes from Brittany and hallucinated 3D creations, dressing Blutch's stage with a fabulous work around the album's theme. These tracks represent the more festive part of the live show, just as Blutch's love for Rennes is also linked to its festive character.

Opener ‘Super Charger’ is a slick cosmic exploration on upbeat drums. It is filled with mind-expanding colours and chords but has a playful and catchy lead that will get hands in the air and bring absolute joy to the dance floor. ‘Condate’ is a much more physical cut driven by a slick breakbeat. Melodic rain falls down the face of the track as booming bass roots you to the dance floor, and once again, the whole track is doused in heavenly synth work and subtle waves of euphoria. Showing yet another different side to his sound, the brilliant ‘Rebirth’ is a deeper track with astral synths radiating all around you. It has a classy trance vibe that sweeps you off your feet and carries you off to the stars.

Remixer Azo is a Belgian powerhouse behind top parties in Brussels; she is also a Kiosk Radio resident, keyboardist and sound engineer. She mixes acid, techno and electro into a colourful and high-energy trip that will take the club to the next dimension.

‘Condate’ is a perfectly impactful EP, both physically and emotionally. The EP drops on the 24th March (vinyl/digital) with preceding single ‘Condate’ arriving on the 22nd February.
