Arapu - Atipic Lab 017 [AtipicLab]

The 17th creation cooked up in AtipicLab is another futuristic take on minimal and tech house from the heart of the Romanian underground. Head man Arapu is behind this one and kicks off with a brilliantly warm and sticky cut that layers silky chords over a rubbery bassline. Fractured vocals drift through the mix to make this a soulful late-night slice. Flip it over and you'll find 'Replacement', a more airy and expansive head-melter with its ethereal melodic motifs and charming distant pads all unfurling over a rock-solid drum breakdown.
