Ravage are happy to announce that rising Dutch talent, Daniel te Boekhorst aka INDUCTION, will take centre stage as the first artist to release on the label with ‘Liturgical Hymns’, the first in our Ravage White Series. Surrounded by music in his youth and having learned piano at an early age, Induction’s play things were eventually set aside and replaced by his fathers analogue hardware and synthesizers. It was in the blood. His sound? A heady concoction of electronica that ranges from deep, melodic and groovy to more urgent and harder realms.A fresh face and name for the scene but one that is destined for great things, all starting right here with RWS001 - ‘Liturgical Hymns’. Track description: The EP comes to life with 'Epitrachelion', its gradual beginnings, packed with minor tonal atmosphere and estranged melody - seep into earshot, a cosmic transmission that grows in intensity with each bar. With progressive synth lines crossing paths with the melodies, this beat-less ascension into futurist electronica radiates and warms the listener as it prepares for it's next transmission. Autocephalous Signs, meanwhile, couldn't be further from the collections humble, gentle beginnings; this beats awakens with a solid, pounding kick drum, while more delicate, glassy synth melodies are carefully juxtaposed with an unrelenting machine rhythm, evoking the spirit of early Jeff Mills and his intersection between man and machine. Analogue, dusty and muscular, it's a hypnotic blast that remains unrelenting to it's very last note. On the flip, The Profit of My Sense brings chiming melodies that dip and trough around interwoven double time beats, pumped up and given stamina by a solid, bass loaded kick drum. Further down the line, 'Astronomical Spectra' is informed by a melody driven rhythm, doused and coated in acid techno bleeps and strains, while clapping 808's create layer upon layer of groove and rhythm, while each part is stacked on top of one another in a metronomic template, reproducing memories of Robert Hood's Minimal Nation in the process. Wrapping up this promising EP comes Theological Explanation, an electro-popping track that pounds with life as a flanged bassline oscillates into the fold, while synth riffs and organ stabs build up the intensity, released gradually as break-beats and vocal chants are woven into the mix, creatinga dynamic and multi tempo finishing cut for this outer-worldly EP.
