Aedis

Spectral Bounce proudly presents Zevar, the debut release by Aedis, an alias of David Iriarte. This new undertaking sees the Amsterdam-based artist plumbing the depths & tunnelling further into a sound that has surely been in the works for some time.

One half of Iro Aka, Iriarte is no stranger to the exploration of ambiance & rhythmic play: the duo released a trilogy of records on John Talabots label Hivern Discs between 2020 & 2023.

On Zevar, Iriarte first traverses the deeper territories of tech house before conjuring up mystic 2-step and delving into rolling techno. The sense of spaciousness throughout the EP is vivid: perpetually unfolding modulated delays; cavernous reverb; weighty, grounding sub frequencies. This expanse is punctuated by fragmentary voices, psychedelic refrains (Xtz), intricate break deployment (Station) and thudding bass tones (RTHM). Just enough is given, just enough held back. With these 4 tracks, Aedis brings you that little bit deeper.
