DESCRIPTION:
4 Track EP OF Funky Techno Minimla Techno & Drone Grooves. Daniel Avery returns to Phantasy for a 4-track limited edition 12' EP,
Slow Fade, featuring the title track and first single from his much-anticipated sophomore LP, upcoming in April via Phantasy.
A prelude to the LP's sonic exploration of the twilight world of a personal, transient life spent between clubs, hotel rooms, airports and home, Slow Fade captures the expanded foundations of Avery's sonic palette. Arresting club moments linger under the surface, but the focus is on the smudged ambience that underpin Avery's grasp on rave euphoria.
As a re-entry into a broader musical universe, 'Slow Fade' is immediately compelling, combining neo-acid, feedback loops and pure atmosphere at a patient but restrained pace. Meanwhile, 'After Dark' alters this aesthetic to it's raw, pensive elements, stripping Avery's distinctive drums completely, revealing a meditative, ambient fog.
'Radius' announces itself with industrial intent, before unfolding seamlessly into a wistful electronic hymn, the perfect soundtrack to brooding London skies, and eventually evolving into slow-motion motorik. Closing the EP, 'Fever Dream' finds Avery at club tempo, but in a somewhat agitated state, on this occasion focusing on a paranoid rhythm that emerges clean from eerie, even paranoid territory. Close your eyes, press repeat.

Last FM Information on Daniel Avery
Please note the information is done on a artist keyword match and data is provided by LastFM.
Daniel Avery is an electronic music producer and DJ from Bournemouth, a resort town on the south coast of England. Avery's music encompasses abstract techno, house, IDM, and shoegaze. Initially going by the name "Stopmakingme", he began releasing well-received indie dance tracks and remixes starting in 2009, but broke through after he switched to his own name in 2012. His expansive full-length debut, Drone Logic, was released to wide acclaim in 2013. Five years and a DJ-Kicks volume later, Avery released his second album, the more cerebral, immersive Song for Alpha.
Avery began DJing indie music as an 18-year-old in his native Bournemouth, England. It wasn't until a trip to Ibiza that he was inspired to spin house and techno, after seeing crowds open to dancing to new and unfamiliar tracks. He connected with Filthy Dukes through a local bar and spun at the synth pop group's Kill 'Em All club night in London, which led to opening slots at the prestigious Fabric. As a producer and remixer, he developed a raw, robust sound that incorporated his love for odd, alien elements. Output from 2009 through 2011, including collaborations with Justin Robertson and remixes for the likes of Little Boots, Metronomy, Hercules & Love Affair, and In Flagranti, was credited to Stopmakingme.
