DESCRIPTION:
2x12" 8 Tracks Of Minimal Techno / Tech - The Swedish DJ / producer Jeremy Olander presents himself and his label Vivrant, one of the currently best melodic house & techno labels, in the Balance series. Olander was the first signed artist on Eric Prydz's Pryda Friends, also released on Bedrock, Drumcode, Anjunadeep, Get Physical and Last Night On Earth, and a BBC Essential Mix before starting his own imprint with Vivrant, whose style and artist roaster he posted here with completely exclusive track listing
Today, the Swedish 32 year old, famous for his melancholic and cinematic style of production and DJ sets consisting predominantly of his own music, is releasing the first-ever mix album in his career. With this long overdue project, Olander is bringing two discs of exclusive music from himself, and friends such as La Fleur, Ejeca, Locked Groove, Marino Canal, Tim Engelhardt, as well as newcomers, A Friends of Marcus, and Carl Dern.
“Balance presents Vivrant encompasses what the label sounds like in 2019 and beyond. Itʼs a true manifestation of our style, and what it’s grown to become in the four years since we started. Iʼve spent close to a year sourcing music for this project, and I can proudly say it fully represents myself and the sound of Vivrant from the first track to the last” Olander says. Itʼs a body of work that I hope will appeal to my old fans that have been following me since the start, but also strike a chord with people that might not historically have been into my sound. There are a bunch of surprises in there that will keep people on their toes,” he continues. I try to shift moods, atmospheres and vibes in an organic way and I feel both sides have its own set of twists and turns that compel you to continue listening.”
”Iʼve been approached and asked to do similar projects in the past, but it never felt like the right move. When we got to talking with Tom Pandzic at Balance, everything fell into place. It’s been kind of nerve wrecking for me to put a project like this together, let alone release it, since it’s not really a mix in the traditional sense. 70% of the music is unreleased stuff from me that Iʼve only played in my sets and music that would typically stay unreleased, or completely new stuff Iʼve made specifically for this album. On top of that you also have huge shoes to fill doing something for Balance. The album James Zabiela did the other year that won Compilation on the Year is absolutely incredible, so Iʼm equal parts curious and terrified to see how my angle will be received.”
”I approached the first side as I would the first few hours playing an open to close set at a club. The atmosphere and vibe is stripped down, the drum patterns are different from what I would play at peak time. I hope it will be a nice fit for when youʼre getting ready to go out, come home from a night out, or just drive around in your car. The first three tracks are new originals under a new name I came up with for this compilation specifically. The fourth track is a remix I made of one of my older unreleased tracks called ʼDharmaʼ that never ended up being released. After that is something Vivrant associate Marino Canal sent me, which is a collaboration with a friend of his called Miguel Payda that I felt fit perfectly into the mood. Itʼs followed up by an incredible new Tim Engelhardt track called ʼTimingʼ. Tim is one of the best, and most prolific producers of his generation, and including him on this project, was a given. He actually has a track on each side,” says Olander.
“The second side mimics more of a typical peak time set from me compressed down to just over an hour. This side has a few curveballs as well. I was really lucky to have some of the producers out there that I admire the most offer up unreleased music for the project, like La Fleur, Locked Groove and Ejeca. Sanna’s ʼSecond Storyʼ is a groovy stomper that brings a cool change of pace and contrast in the mid part of the mix before I tra
