Antigone – Your Love Parisian Producer And DJ Antigone Takes It Groovy, With His Latest Release on No Pain No Game Antigone’s ‘Selected Works Zero One’ marks his turn of focus into the seemingly forgotten Hard Groove movement of the early 00s with a newfound stylistic approach... At the forefront of the French underground music scene, Antigone’s fast and fun productions have graced labels including Token, Trip, Soma and WSNWG. A HÖR and Boiler Room regular, he also held down a residency for legendary club Concrete in his hometown of Paris for 5 years and has played line ups at career defining venues including Berghain, Awakenings and Bassiani. His latest release on his No Pain No Game imprint, welcomes a new path in his output style. Clearly focusing on tracks that are heavy on groove, in a bold decision to take a step away from the BPM race that seems to have taken over the industry, with its hard and soulless sound. “I feel the techno scene is getting harder and faster with each release. This sound has somehow almost become commercially acceptable and accessible. I’m not so comfortable being a part of this BPM race”. I need music to have a soul and for me, that only comes with groove” – says Antigone.

Building around vigorous tribal-infused grooves with an industrial tinge, it glides effortlessly through a wave of intensifying melodies and hypnotic vox layers to carve out a dancefloor-focused peak-time weapon. ‘The Rhythm’ is as the name would suggest, focusing on a flow of intense drum work and rattling percussive elements whilst pulsating harmonies flood the mix. Its punchy core of hard and fast instrumental flare and modulating frequencies ride an ebb and flow of largely danceable segments and artistic breaks with plenty of tricks up its sleeve from start to finish. The release closes on ‘Your Love’. Thick and fast in sound, it’s drums and riveting percussive build-ups lead the way. Minimalist in its approach, the well-placed vocal injections and atmospheric elements in the mix create an undeniably standout option for demanding sets and wanting crowds. ___ DISCLAIMER: All tracks are uploaded in a low quality for promotional purposes only and with buy links to respect label and artists.
