FJAAK returns to their own imprint this September with a new four-track EP ‘FJAAK 015’, showcasing the raw, analogue driven techno that has become synonymous with the Berlin duo. Lead single ‘Serotonin’ is out now, offering the first glimpse into the project before the complete release follows on 17th September.
Opening the EP, ‘Serotonin’ is unmistakably FJAAK. Stripped back and fiercely groove-focused, punchy drums and crisp hat sequencing lock around roaring low end, offbeat tension and precisely placed tonal percussion. Analogue textures give the production its raw physical character, while an arrangement built around subtle shifts in rhythm and pressure keeps the energy continuously moving. Designed with dark rooms and heavyweight systems firmly in mind, it captures the direct warehouse functionality at the heart of FJAAK’s sound while retaining the personality and hardware-driven grit that has long separated their productions from the pack.
Based in Berlin, Felix Wagner and Aaron Röbig have been making music together since childhood, developing FJAAK into one of the most recognisable names in the electronic music industry. Over the years, the duo have built a reputation for their rebellious approach to club culture, electrifying live performances and hardware-driven productions, drawing from techno, powerhouse, dub, breakbeat and beyond. FJAAK’s forthcoming EP, ‘FJAAK015 ‘, is available to pre-save here.
