New music from Aparde

German producer Aparde brings us his new track “Allies”. The new release is lifted from the artist’s latest album Alliance. The new album sees the musician retreat from his recent experimentations with avant-garde pop music back into the world of deep, and oftentimes dark, electronica.

For his previous album, Hands Rest, Aparde ventured outside Berlin’s club scene through the use of his voice, which gave his music a softer and more intimate edge. Alliance is no less intimate, except this time the artist’s vulnerability seeps through the cracks rather than taking centre stage. As impressive sonically as it is technically, Aparde used a mixture of electronic sounds, analogue equipment and his own voice either as a sound element or lyrical component to explore this duality of sound.

Aparde’s music embodies the essence of impression, packed in emotionally touching and exceptional tracks. This is especially true on his latest track, which plays dark and ominous composition with emotive and uplifting sentiments.

“Allies” starts off dire and dark before Aparde’s hushed voice shines through the shadows. Melancholic yes, but also warm – “Allies” brings together heavy electronic gear, analogue equipment and Aparde’s own voice to explore the many faces of sound.
