SALES NOTES

After sending Scala to Berlin, twirling his Hélice in London and colonising Bapteme in Cologne, Agoria declares ‘Independence’ in Barcelona. An anthem that’s been a highlight of the summer for Maceo Plex and Agoria, Independence’s date has finally being fixed.

Agoria’s debut release on Ellum is an equally sinister and experimental affair. Apocalyptic drum crescendos are broken up by warm synths tones and washed against baritone basslines on the title track. Architectural’s stunning rework elevates it to an eerie, cavernous space. ‘Gravity’ featuring Nicolas Becker, features spoken word layered over a driving, hypnotic groove. This alternative vinyl version of ‘Independence’ is only available on the 12" features the infamous Russian pianist Mikhail Rudy.

He also founded Nuits Sonores, one of the best European festivals is currently experimenting with cinéma with film director Jan Kounen & with contemporary art.
