Day 11 of our 2018 charity Advent Calendar, in aid of Julie’s Bicycle. Listen to all this year’s donations.
One of Moscow’s most formidable dance music exports, Leonid Lipelis, brings his distinct yet accessible left-field sound to ‘Science and Art’. The track is inspired by the atmosphere at a DIY venue in Moscow called Nauka i Iskusstvo (which translates to Science and Art), that Leonid was due to play at around the time of its conception.
From ambient, tension-building synth progressions, to the more chaotic, melodic analogue stabs, this track is driven by a steadily evolving pulse and is as exciting as it is engrossing. A thumping, sub-heavy undercarriage makes it crafted perfectly for a fully engaged dance floor in the early hours. After falling short of being pressed a couple of times, we’re glad to see it finally surface for a good cause.
Our 2018 Advent Calendar is in aid of Julie’s Bicycle, a non-profit that supports the creative industry to take action on climate change.
