Sales Information:

Øyvind Morken ventures into the functional aspects of dance music for his latest EP, calling on his invaluable experiences from the DJ booth and moulding them into four dance floor tracks that highlight the more mysterious corners of Oslo’s dance floors. Built on the foundation of syncopated high hats and elastic Juno bass sequences that have become the Oslo DJ’s trademark sound palette, Invisible Objects finds Morken in a coy mood. Catchy melodic phrases repeat over driving rhythm sections, constructed from Morken’s vast knowledge and experience of the dance floor. Øyvind ingrains a mysterious air in the title track as the main melodic phrase drifts off its central pitch in a woolly distraction from the precise rhythm section. Unholy Trance’s Theremin-like central motif carries this sentiment through on the A-side, creating a hazy B-movie aesthetic against the backdrop of the primal pulse that has transcended the jungle for the cold solitude of space. Morken is nothing but a curator of mood, taking the experience of the DJ booth once again to the recorded format. As Invisible Objects moves over to the B-side, the producer tones things down with the lusciously serene New age of Faith, a cover of LB Bad´s classic Nu Groove record from 1989, before making the final ominous statement with Dance of the Drunk, a track forged in the bowels of an electro beat while metallic bass-stabs make a sizeable impression in the speaker cabinet, before moving onto its next victim.
