KIPRONNO VOYAGER REMIXES EP

.

Gars Records returns with an intention to connect underground talent with dance-floors worldwide. The latest chapter sees four unique perspectives reimagining Kipronno’s “Voyager” EP – a modern and emotional take on sentimental techno.

CMRK delivers a nocturnal peak-time weapon, Phase Line builds hypnotic tension through groove, y2kati sculpts silk-smooth sub frequencies with signature stab modulation and Rolo adds a UK techno flavour for sunrise or opening moments. Together, the remixes honor the roots of techno while pushing its sound into a forward-thinking future.

The EP releases on the co-curated label Gars Records, which focuses on classically modern techno. Big thanks to Povilas Baranauskis to make it look good and audiomastering.lt to sound it good.

You can preview the EP on Gars Records Soundcloud and purchase it over our Bandcamp >>
