Berlin native Ballerino delivers dreamy B-side 'Concentrate'
Other | Wednesday 10th June 2015 | Annalisa
Ballerino, a Berlin-native producer and founding member of South-East London-based artist collective squareglass, returns with his new B-side single ‘Love’/’Concentrate’.
‘Love’ and ‘Concentrate’ are a continuation of his exploration of avant-garde electronics, as he hones in on the themes of modern relationships - affection and obsession, the erotic and sterile, romantic versus disconcerting gestures.
With echoes of classic house, 'Love' sees Ballerino’s softly-spoken vocals combine with a laid-back groove and looped pads, giving the track a fresh but retro feel. 'Concentrate' is downtempo and dreamy, with sparse production, slow percussive hits and a single vocal refrain.
squareglass are a label firmly on the up with their innovative approach to electronic music – and Ballerino’s ‘Love’/’Concentrate’ can only help to cement their reputation as one of the capital’s most exciting new collectives.
Catch Ballerino performing live at Rye Wax to celebrate the single’s launch on 18th June. Follow him on Facebook, Twitter and SoundCloud.
