about

Long-time collaborators Alex Over & Andrew Shobeiri launch Over's brand new Perpetual Collective label with a pair of outstanding tracks.

Alex Over has set up Perpetual Collective to have more control over his output and platform new talent. The label intends to be staunchly independent, have no fixed sound, and be a place for innovative, unconstrained music.

Over is a busy and experimental artist whose diverse musical output is characterised by real grit. He puts out free self-releases each month, runs The U-Turn podcast, and is an in-demand remixer. On top of this, he has picked up high-profile press for his various projects and shared stages with the likes of James Zabiela. Fellow Brightonian Andrew Shobeiri is a mysterious artist coming off the back of a significant collaboration with techno titan Rodhad. He releases as Rene Wise and has many styles in his arsenal.

This pair went to the same music college and immediately found common musical ground. After producing together for around seven years, they now plan to release their creations to the world. They were made on a range of hardware and software with found sounds, live instruments and bespoke sound banks. All of this lends their sounds a uniquely raw and distinctive character.

Opening the account is 'Tides,' a suspenseful electronic house track with loose, off-grid lead synths and rubbery kicks. It teases and pleases as it rolls on with distant eerie pads and plenty of great FX, adding texture and drama. A gorgeous synth breakdown resets the mood before the dubbed-outgroove returns. 'Compass' is a perfectly stripped-back, rough-edged house cut in the style of STL. The rugged bass and scuffed-up kicks are softened by beautiful melodies that bring hope, optimism, and absorbing listening.

001 is a stylish opening EP from a label that already promises plenty.
