Croatian-based producer Petar Dundov will release his second album later this month.
Producer Petar Dundov runs his own ‘Neumatik’ studio and multimedia company where he works as a sound engineer as well as producing his own take on techno, house and electronica. The new album ‘Escapements’ is his most accomplished work to date and features beautifully layered techno, hypnotic rhythms and shimmering melodies that make this a real landmark release for the Croatian DJ/producer. The lead single ‘Oasis’ is complimented by a remix from Substance & Vainqueur and follow up singles will include mixes from Detroit’s Echospace, Dub Kult and DFA’s Gavin Russom.
Since his first foray into the world of electronic production he has now released on selected labels including Cocoon. In 2001 he released the ambient album ‘Sculptures 1-3′ on Jeff Mills’ Tomorrow label and he has even worked on a soundtrack for ballet noir “Torsia” in Zagreb through his own studio and multimedia company www.neumatik.hr.
After a short creative break Petar released the single “Running Man” and brought attention back to his music. The single also announced the direction and concept of his forthcoming album ‘Escapements’. Fusing hypnotic rhythms, bubbling melodies, intricate atmospheres and a soundtrack like quality ‘Escapements’ exists in a nocturnal post club hinterland where the bass and beats of the nights clubbing still echo through your ears as night turns into day.
Taking the listener from the club to a tripped out dreamscape, ‘Escapements’ brings musicality back to techno and shows that minimal need not be one dimensional. Driving, thrilling and emotionally charged ‘Escapements’ is set to cross the techno/house/trance divide and become one of the essential electronic albums of 2008.
Music Man will release Escapements on September 29, 2008.
