Antraum – Omakase 001

There's no better way to kick off the newly formed Omakase catalogue than with a sizzlingly acidic minimal/tech house release from Antraum - the collaborative project from producers Anton and Traumer. On the A-side, 'Ichi' is a mouthwatering introduction to the project, exploring what happens when the details of a track are fixed to the backdrop - subtle flecks of vocals, instrumentation, and acid-hued gestures offered as a gift to the most attentive listeners. Flipping over to the B-side, 'Go (Le Porc Du Havre)', features expertly spliced vocal samples, paired with animal calls that sound either pre-historic or extraterrestrial - either way, they're out of this world. The final track, 'Ju', is the deepest of the three - cosy synths duet beautifully with the fragmented, bluesy vocal sample, riding the wave of the track's irresistible groove. Three distinct tracks tied together with perfection, this is a stellar first release for Omakase.
