'Affection' by Boys Noize & ABRA out now, stream it here

October 04, 2021 by Toby Boston in Electronic, EDM, Dark

Listen to this song in our official Spotify playlist: 

‘Discovering The Undiscovered’

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

Boys Noize teams up with ABRA for the second time ahead of the 5th studio album '+/-' (Polarity) with the dark industrial single 'Affection', fusing licks of classic dance and synths with tight contemporary production… ‘Affection’ offers a blueprint for the future sound of the club. ABRA's brooding vocals lay on top of an authentically rich instrumental, with classic drum machine rhythms and dense synth basses, with a hazy nostalgia resonating throughout the track.

“Affection is a story about realizing that the love is only one way. Love isn’t love when it’s done as a favour - it actually implies the opposite. It is two people being seen and allowing the other to see them. You shouldn’t take away someone else’s right to exercise their self love and respect out of fear of judgement or the uncomfortable truth. That’s not love and it serves no one." — ABRA

Few electronic musicians have crafted such a unique musical blueprint as Boys Noize, +/- encapsulates the rich culture of underground Berlin, blending elements of the subterranean techno and industrial house from his home country. With a Grammy win to his name and working with some of the worlds biggest acts such as A$AP Rocky, Bon Iver and Lady Gaga, Boys Noize has well and truly defined himself as one of the pioneering electronic musicians of this era.

Stream "Affection' now alongside the +/- album from Boys Noize.

Stream the latest from What So Not and DMA'S here, "The Change" out now

May 07, 2021 by Toby Boston in EDM, Electronic

Listen to this song in our official Spotify playlist: 

‘Discovering The Undiscovered’

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

Visionary producer What So Not returns after a year-long hiatus with “The Change”, an exciting collaboration with fellow Australian artists DMA’S. The new single incorporates dashes of rock mixed with classic electronic sound palettes made popular by artists like; The Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy, and Underworld.

What So Not says: “I met Johnny at their studio - a small room next to a noisy inner-city road, above a pub, with no sound insulation. We (somehow) never met but clicked instantly, discussing life on the road, COVID & found commonality on our all-time favourite artists. The first thing we made is pretty much the track you hear. Johnny liked our little idea so much he decided to get the whole band involved & a couple of days later we tracked Tommy & brought Mason in for some extra pieces. I feel like this record is one the two of us have always wanted to make but never had the right pieces of the puzzle, until now.”

2018's “Not All the Beautiful Things” reaffirmed What So Not’s place as one of the most ambitious producers in the game. Today, “The Change” marks a new chapter for the artist and we’re thrilled to have the opportunity just to experience it. What So Not has solidified his role as an innovative producer, bold creative, and a powerhouse of influence within the scene. And it’s safe to say we’re looking forward to hearing more from the artist in the coming months. Until then, don’t forget to connect with What So Not online to stay up to date and enjoy!
