Two new tracks by Felche create a techno and electro inspired atmosphere
A partnership of two long-term friends, Felche is an Italian duo that began making music together two years ago. Merging their backgrounds in techno, electro, experimental electronics, and contemporary music composition, the pair has explored the boundaries of dub, glitch, drone, and techno through their 100% hardware-based sessions. As a result, they have produced two releases in the last two years that demonstrate their in-studio approach.
The newest release, “Astrazione Astrale” follows on from their first single in 2020, “Faune.” Playlisted by house DJ Sasha, “Faune” is comprised of three tracks: “Nel Labirinto,” “Striature dell’Inconscio,” and “Quinto Cancello.” The first produces an ephemeral house sound, with the second following up to add a layer of chaos and intensity, only to close with a drum pad-focused track that seals the release off at a more minimal note.
“Faune” set the tone for their playful and dance-oriented techno sound that embedded itself into “Astrazione Astrale,” released this July. Two tracks—the album’s namesake and “Isolesole”—create a thirteen-minute rhythmic experience comprised of a combination of techno themes, house feelings, and dynamic energy fit to set the atmosphere on the dancefloor. Felche uses pads and 808 drums, blended with reverbs and tape delays to create a pulse that trickles throughout the beat at a steady energy across both songs.
