A1. The Initiative A2. Vapour B1. Entangle B2. Stateless Gudu Records continues a busy start to 2022 with Italian due Hiver™s debut for the label - a high-definition EP that draws on classic electro and techno, following the group™s acclaimed past releases for Curle Recordings, Bokhari and Deeplabs. A record that both marks and celebrates Hiver™s 10 years of operation, ˜Wave Sliding™ wears its influences on its sleeve: lead track ˜The Initiative™ is a štribute to Detroit™s Hi-Tech Funk of the early 2000s›, lead by the sort of ostinato bassline and legato strings that have become Hiver™s trademark. ˜Vapour™ and ˜Entangle™ continue the EP™s retro-futurist outlook, drawing on sci-fi imagery and themes of travel, while ˜Stateless™ looks to the šeasy-trance› sounds of 90s dancefloors for inspiration. Together, the tracks mark a perfect summary of Hiver™s vision of the dancefloor - bound together by vibrant colours and a starry-eyed, utopian nature.
