Alan Fitzpatrick returns to Radio Slave’s Rekids with the ‘Immortal Daydream’ this month. Following 2020’s ‘Step Away’ on Rekids, as well as multiple releases on labels such as Drumcode, Hotflush, and his own We Are The Brave, Alan returns in full techno mode for his second appearance on the imprint in 2021.
Classic 909 kits and spacey reverberations take front and centre across the record, displayed on lead track ‘Everlasting’, which kicks off proceedings by rumbling through a series of effects and dubbed-out chords.
‘Titan Silence’ follows with reserved synths built delicately around thunderous drums, a track aimed at dark cavernous rooms.
On the flip, ‘Droid Disco’ sees the Southampton producer look to the twilight hours, as off-kilter synths wriggle and evolve throughout, leading into the closing track ‘The Underdog’, which sees Fitzpatrick delve further into the night, combining drums with soft synthesis to close off.
Alan Fitzpatrick ‘Immortal Daydream EP’ lands on Rekids on 29 January.
