Jay Lumen announces his second studio album ‘Voyager’ on home imprint Footwork, showcasing a fifteen track collection of innovative techno productions.
Opener ‘Water’ feat. Xenia Beliayeva brings intensity from the off as sharp 909 kicks combine with spacey melodies, an aesthetic permeated across follow up tracks ‘Air’ and ‘Redhead’. Eerie acid lines and concentrated arpeggios merge throughout ‘Dub Preacher’ (Preachers Album Dub), while resonant stabs and crisp breaks can be found on ‘Theme From London’. ‘2k Roller’ and ‘Reboot’ see Lumen drop two commanding, big-room anthems before the pulsating ‘Preacher’ hits to showcase another menacing club-ready gem.
The second half reveals the beguiling balearic-leaning album edition of ‘The Blue Dot’ alongside Air Division to offer a moment of calm, before ‘Storm Of The Hangar’ and ‘Aura’ launch back into the action as prowling synths and punchy drums dominate. Firing hi-hats and jacking snares combine on ‘The Loop’, with ‘From Outer Space’ introducing acidic gurgles and rolling crescendos throughout. Two down-tempo grooves round out the project as ‘Spiral’ offers up an after-hour club flex, before closing via the ethereal sonics and blissful beats of ‘Voyager’.
Jay Lumen’s ‘Voyager’ LP drops via Footwork on 15th October 2021.
