PREMIERE: Dmitry Distant – Artificial Joy [Dark Leader] 2017

May 26, 2017

2017 also brings Dark Leader 003 featuring Riga’s Dmitry Distant and Portland’s own Natural Magic. Side A begins with “Tuksums” a driving acid jam by Dmitry Distant that brings the energy level up to 11 and leaves it there. Natural Magic’s “Most High” polishes off side A with a triumphantly positive romp that puts the love icing right on the cake. Side B opens with “Artificial Joy” a breaky acid track by Dmitry Distant that will engross the dance floor with groovy sinister funk. This release concludes with Natural Magic’s “Dude Can Dance” a drummy piece of hypnotic dance music that dabbles in experimentalism complete with aural hallucinations. Dark Leader 003 is housed in a full color jacket featuring cover artwork by Myra Koza, design by Eric Adrian Lee, and mastered by Timothy Stollenwerk.
Dmitri Distant is a latvian musician from Riga. His music reflect the atmosphere of the Baltic and the mystic sides of electronic music. Showing where his devotion lies, Dmitry experiments on the verge of electro, wave and industrial.
