BUNKR
Debut LP : The Initiation Well
General Release 20th September 2019
Bandcamp Release - vinyl exclusive, 6th September
Operating somewhere east of Eden on the hazy peripherals of ‘dance’ music BUNKR enslaves dust-coated synthesizers, dilapidated drum machines and rusted FX boxes to craft music for his impatient overlords. Utilizing the familiar concepts and components of techno, electronica and ambient, BUNKR goes about his business sculpting a unique hybrid designed for headphones and discotheques alike.
BUNKR releases have been coming thick and fast courtesy of Berlin’s Love On The Rocks label and production duo Echaskech’s imprint, VLSI, with support from the likes of Tim Sweeney (Beats In Space), DJ Food (Ninja Tune), Nick Warren (Way Out West), James Zabiela, Sister Bliss (Faithless) and Posthuman (I Love Acid).
The debut BUNKR album, titled The Initiation Well, is due for release in September 2019. Nobody quite knows the purpose of the mysterious Initiation Well but one thing is for certain, a universe of swirling analogue synths, arpeggiations and hypnotic ambient and electronic textures awaits. As BUNKR himself puts it, “this album provides the listener with an intrepid exploration of the BUNKR sound world. It’s melodic, pretty atmospheric and a little bit woozy.”
For those that enter The Initiation Well, an other-worldly nebulae of classic BUNKR melodies awaits. Indeed BUNKR draws from a rich palette of sounds; from the hypnotic slow techno throb of Docking Procedure to the pastoral Kraut-esque sprawl of For The Birds, with slow-burning ambient interludes Solitary Drift and Jacinthe Horizon providing brief moments of reflection along the way. The beautiful interstellar artwork by Magic Torch provides a perfect window into the world of BUNKR – this is music inspired by man and machine, wide-screen vistas terrestrial and unknown.
The Initiation Well will be available on all digital platforms plus hand numbered, limited edition double LP with transparent vinyl and full colour high quality 350gsm sleeve.
