The 93rd release on Darin Epsilon's label features the stunning debut EP by Pischinger and Dermota from Austria.
Welcoming new artists to the Perspectives Digital family is always an exciting occasion. Hailing from a city famous for its historic musical roots, Michael Pischinger and Julian Dermota have formed a strong bond from their Vienna home on the River Danube. Cultivating a distinctive sound with an acoustic touch, Pischinger and Dermota are not defined by a single musical genre but sit comfortably within the realm of Melodic House, Deep House, and Organic House. Defining themselves as "protagonists of an impulsive, atmospheric and diversified sound", the Austrian duo have established an impressive reputation across their hometown with their meticulously crafted DJ sets at top venues such as Pratersauna and Sass Music Club.
In tandem, a production career has propelled them into the limelight with a clutch of high-profile releases dating back to 2014. Now debuting on Perspectives Digital, Pischinger and Dermota begin a musical voyage rooted in North Africa. With its beautiful opening piano sequence, "Ait Ben Haddou" combines organic instrumentation with a powerful beat and ticking hi hat percussion. A repeated motif is the ideal backdrop for plucked string melodies and white-noise infused synth swells to combine in perfect juxtaposition. Rising and falling with ease as it blossoms into the second half, "Ait Ben Haddou" is a splendid illustration of musical craftsmanship and modern electronic production techniques.
"Marakesh" is a further example of the marriage between electronic and native Moroccan instruments. Atmospheric kora type motifs pierce the midrange while a shimmering arpeggio filters into sonic range as a perfect accompaniment. Reprising the main melody at the stripped-back breakdown, the second half erupts with the analog arpeggio taking center stage. A deep kick, rapid-fire shaker, and tuned percussion add subtle urgency as rhythm and melody combine in beautiful harmony.
A dynamic musical landscape finds Pischinger and Dermota creating a vivid sonic journey from "Ait Ben Haddou" to "Marakesh".
