Counter Future EP (Part 1) [feat. Godblesscomputers, Skyence & 813]

A 3 track leftfield/idm ep (3m ) — released May 27th 2013 on Equinox Records

The Counter Future EP is a preview for the compilation "Counter Future - A Sound Exposure Vol. 3", which will be released in May 2013 on Equinox Records. The album marks the 50th release on the label and also acts as the 10th anniversary compilation. The EP introduces the project as a whole.

Known to create special artwork packages and vinyl editions, Equinox decided to release the vinyl version of the EP in two separate parts, each of them a one sided 12" pressing with a lazer etching on the flip side. For this special project Equinox has hired two incredible guest artists for the artwork: CONE (The Weird), an amazingly talented illustrator, who already has done artworks for Melting Pot / MPM and other labels, provides the etching for the first EP (eqx-047), while Parisian designer and collagist Albane Simon (DYN), renowned for her countless covers in the indie rap world, provides the art for part 2 (eqx-048).

Italian newcomer producer Godblesscomputers introduces the Counter Future series with the uplifting and impulsive "Chocolate". Next up comes "Scars" by Skyence, followed by "After Midnight" from the aspiring Russian beatmaker 813, who recently released music on labels such as Donky Pitch, 92 Points and Activia Benz. With "Running Circles", the first track on part 2 of the EP, Rawbot offers a very club friendly electronic track. "Lunatic Dolphin" by Misanthrop is next with punching 808 drums, and leads over to Haunted Days & Witch's Teat, a French production duo who won the last Equinox remix contest, end the EP with the more organic and deeper "Our Music Box" which satisfies the listener with intricate rhythms and excellent arrangement.

Both Counter Future 12" EPs are perfect teasers for the upcoming full length compilation. Unlike the album it is more orientated for the DJs with tunes like "Chocolate", "Running Circles" and "After Midnight".
