Oh it feels so good to have him back! Enigmatic French DJ and producer I Hate Models breaks his hiatus just for us, and returns with a 5-track EP called Forever Melancholia. The Techno producer returns to his melodic and dark, industrial sounds, driven by complex emotions and intensity. The Disco Inferno label boss sure know hows to get us in our feels to some really fast bpms.
Forever Melancholia EP
The first singles of the release made their impact earlier in October this year, gradually resonating on dancefloors all over the world. ‘For My People‘ is a beautiful beginning to the EP, with ethereal vocals that sounds like your speaking to a past lover over the phone, with a emotional string arrangement break that unleashes into an filthy drop that accompanies gear-like structures and textures. The title track ‘Forever Melancholia’ continues the sad and profound undertones with dynamic Hardstyle and Psytrance elements that result in a song that gives you goosebumps.
Then, ‘Twin Souls’ has a more dystopian and futuristic approach to its soundscapes. You feel the emotions of the producer evolve as the album progresses. Lastly, the next two tracks released, which complete the album, are ‘Forgotten Future’ and ‘Nostalgica’. The both bring a shocking repertoir of sounds and vocals that add even more energy and dissonance to the rest of the EP. Each track is surprisingly different but highly detailed, and charged with feelings that inspire.
The depth of this EP is remarkable, as it conveys a wider range of sound that people think Hard Techno can achieve.
“Each track is an open window to a story, a feeling, an emotion, melancholy that is at once profound, moving, sometimes dark, sometimes luminous…”
“…Remember: music can accompany us in every moment of life; it is there to bring us together, soothe our wounds, transport us elsewhere, and sometimes, quite simply, make us happy.”
