| Description: | The latest addition to the Figure roster comes in form of French producer Arkan. A musician from young age, he combines minimalist, deep-cut grooves with understated harmonies.
His first release on the label arrives as part one of his Lightworker double EP, giving the artist ample room to showcase his own vision of contemporary, â??mental technoâ?? as he dubs it himself.
Fitting this description, opener Delirium is a deeply hypnotic tune, mastering the subtle art of sustain and release to effortlessly cycle its own energy. Vicious Night then tips towards a more percussively lead momentum yet stays true to the less-is-more approach of Arkan.
On the flip he gets to further build on his musical ideas, whether it be the melodic fragments echoing pensively in and out of the 4/4 grid over the galopping beat of Voltaris or eventually the saccharine, IDM-reminiscent ambient closer What Is Born Cannot Die.
Digital bonus Subway then completes the five-tracker with an eery piece of tunnel techno, leaving us excited to hear more of Arkan on part two of his Lightworker EP. - "Lightworker Part 1" is a powerful Vinyl Maxi release by Arkan, brought to you by the renowned techno label Figure. This record delivers an immersive journey through deep, driving rhythms and hypnotic soundscapes that showcase Arkan's signature style?blending raw energy with intricate production techniques. The tracks on this maxi are designed for both peak-time dancefloors and discerning listeners who appreciate sophisticated electronic music.
Arkan has rapidly established himself as one of the most promising talents in contemporary techno. Known for his dynamic sets and innovative productions, he has gained recognition across Europe?s underground scene, performing at major clubs and festivals while releasing acclaimed EPs on respected labels such as Figure. His unique approach fuses classic Detroit influences with modern European sounds, earning him support from top DJs worldwide.
Figure, founded by Len Faki in Berlin, stands as one of the leading imprints in techno since its inception in 2003. With a reputation for quality releases from artists like Cleric, Markus Suckut, and Juxta Position alongside newcomers like Arkan, Figure continues to shape the future of electronic music with its forward-thinking vision. |
