For those that keep an eye on our Soundcloud and Facebook pages, you may have already been aware that we’ve an EP imminent for release by German artist Ajott. After the recent deepness of Magnofon’s Smallroom Breaks album, our next release sees us return to a more electronic sound; Ajott’s Homeward EP is a set of well-programmed deeply minimal Techno cuts. It will be released on Tuesday 10th of November. Check out a preview by hitting play below:

Press release:
Hot on the heels of our last release is a new digital EP forthcoming on Warehouse Decay, courtesy of Ajott. The Homeward EP was written by Christian Hoche from Erfurt, Germany and took shape a few months back following the artist’s travels.

We first discovered Ajott last year and have been working with him towards his debut EP release, which comes after the best part of a decade spent honing his craft. Armed with influences of nature and Jazz, the Ajott studio sound starts life in Ableton Live and much of his work is designed or based around live performances. His style is characterised around minimalism and not only does it nod back to the post-millenium Minimal Techno revolution but it is also rooted to the Deep House movement, with deep synths and plenty of Dub.

Homeward is comprised of three tracks and opens with ‘Wooden’, a deep and brooding piece of slow Techno. This is followed by title track ‘Homeward’ which continues the mood of the opening track, with a little more jack and swing in the minimal rhythms as the synths soar. The EP draws to a close with ‘Early Bird’ in which the minimalist percussion is particularly effective alongside the swirling dub stabs.
