The ‘Collective Futurism’ EP is the first release from The Futurists, consisting of two deep, trippy, and hypnotic progressive house tracks ‘Vladivostok’ and ‘Third Fiddle’. The EP is rounded out with an incredible, deep organic remix of ‘Vladivostok’ by Akiva and an amazing driving breaks remix of ‘Third Fiddle’ by Sean Gruv.
‘Vladivostok’ is inspired by a trippy tour across the outer extremes of the trans-Siberian railway. The dark and driving beats keep the groove locked throughout, as vocal samples twist and tease like a dystopian dream. The track builds and builds with multiple layers, to an orchestral crescendo that stays long in the listener’s imagination.
Akiva takes on a slowed-down, moodier interpretation of “Vladivostok” putting on his signature percussion-focused, atmospheric sound, of late.
‘Third Fiddle’ is inspired by an American violin player’s life story, and his spoken word quotes and samples are interspersed throughout. This dark and chunky tech-progressive tune has complex layered beats that build to an orchestral choir-inspired chorus. This track is sure to destroy dance floors around the globe, with a dynamic tension of light, shade, and a sprinkling of intrigue.
While Sean Gruv’s remix of ‘Third Fiddle’ is a deep rolling breakbeat journey filled with trippy synths and a splash of the original vocals to round it out. Enjoy the ride.
The Futurists would like to give huge thanks to Barry Jamieson and Manu Riga for their incredible mixdown and mastering on the original tracks, Akiva and Sean Gruv for delivering phenomenal remixes in their own unique styles, and finally Saturo Sounds for believing in us, and releasing our first EP!
