Astrovoyager journeys into the cosmos on 'Architect'


Born in Metz and based in Dole, eastern France since 2011, music has been Philippe Fagnoni’s passion from a young age. Philippe was part of various bands until starting his own distinctive project, AstroVoyager, where he sought out to explore the boundaries within electro-symphonic music.


AstroVoyager gradually weaves electronic synthesizers and keyboards with instruments from a full orchestra to create an electronic symphony. Complemented by an extraordinary live performance, AstroVoyager’s ultimate goal is to completely immerse the listener in the music and visuals taking them on a cosmic journey.


‘Architect’ indeed lives up to this notion - sit back, relax, and enjoy the view of the milky way galaxy seated right on the edge of Saturn’s rings. Distanced, cold pianos sit atop deep, rich bass synthesizers, leading ‘Architect’ straight into the void as Taïga’s delicate vocal work together with concise percussion and drum programming fills the air with hope, reminding us that we are in fact the architects of the future.

A release party for the album Big Bang is scheduled for October 26th at Le Triton in Paris, France. On October 31st, exclusive collector items to accompany the forthcoming album Big Bang will also be available to purchase through Pledge Music.

Øfdream releases Anthology pt.1 through The Playground Records


Electronic producer Øfdream has recently released Anthology pt.1 through The Playground Records. The French wave producer has shared stages with the likes of Vitalic, Com Truise and Lorn and has already amassed over 3 million plays on his prior work.

Øfdream’s forays into production began with early experiments in progressive house. Dabbling in hip-hop and creating new sounds and textures, his sound began to take shape akin to garage, dark-melodious trap and heavy alternative electronic inspired music by which he was influenced. The result is a remarkable body of work which showcase his forward thinking production skills. “I am really happy with the release of “Anthology”. I worked hard on the different atmospheres and space of this EP, and hope it takes your mind on a trip” he says.

Tracks such as ‘Thelema’ and ‘Fallen Angel’ paint a vibrant picture of glacial landscapes amidst gleaming, shimmering desert sands. Øfdream channels these fantasies into a spellbinding actuality of vivid and lush textures by creating deep, provocative atmospheres and hooks.
