Five years after his critically acclaimed debut album “Drone Logic”, London-based producer Daniel Avery returns to Phantasy for a four-track limited edition 12” vinyl EP, “Slow Fade”, featuring the title track and first single from his much-anticipated second album “Song For Alpha”, set for release on April 6th.
The 14-track “Song For Alpha” LP is Avery’s exploration of the space in which home listening and club music intersect, in no small part inspired by his transient life spent between nightclubs, flights, the passenger seats of cars and hotel rooms. He confirms, “Drone Logic’s spiritual home was the dancefloor. This record’s is definitely the road. Those late nights and hazy mornings, finding inspiration beyond the fog.”
Our first taste from the upcomomg record comes in the form of “Slow Fade”, a great track that 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.
The “Slow Fade” EP is out today via Phantasy. Pick up your 12” here.
