PREMIERE: Iro Aka - Fukushia
The Barcelona-based duo Iro Aka are about to self-release their six-track compilation, Ametrine Horizon.
The release ranges from acid-infused downtempo on Indigo, to ambient breakbeat on Blooms In, to psychedelic dance-floor euphoria on Oort Speis. Today, we’re happy to bring you 7 minutes and a half of melody and rhythm on Fukushia, the release’s closer.
The track starts out with a thumping kick, steady percussion, and a floating pad sustained throughout the track with the exception of a few mini-breaks as well as an extended breakdown at the halfway mark. The bleep-inspired melody keeps our attention for the duration of the track before it disintegrates and nothing but the synth pad remains until the track comes to a halt. Fukushia, part of the Ametrine Horizon compilation, comes out on February 11th, 2022. The track as well as the full release are now available for pre-order on Bandcamp at the link below.
