Djrum - I Wander [Etched Picture Disc 12-inch]

Genre: Ambient, Electronic, Experimental Electronic, IDM.

Following the success of “Under Tangled Silence” last year which peaked at number one in the UK Dance Albums charts and peaked at 9 on the UK Albums Chart staying in for 21 weeks, DJRUM returns to Houndstooth with a 15 minute continuous EP pressed to side A and a custom etched picture disc on Side B.

Felix (DJRUM) was a child prodigy as an instrumentalist and his advanced musicality has always been prominent in his music, but here he has put himself front and centre as a composer. And this sense of exposure as a performer interweaves with an unflinching emotional openness too. Where sometimes electronic production as advanced as this can use intellect and techniques as shields from soul-baring, this is the sound of someone who can boldly say “I feel things, I cry all the time, and I'm not afraid to say it or show it in the music.” But this doesn’t mean there’s a move away from the soundsystems and dancefloors where Felix made his name as a uniquely innovative vinyl DJ, this EP encapsulates his musical upbringing weaving in percussive elements across the stereo field to create a truly mesmerizing listening experience.
