“Both of us are Electronic Explorations’ supporters since its early days. The show helped us to find out about new names, labels and genres which had a good part in the development of our career. After listening to some of our favorite producers in the past Warehouse Sessions, we were honored to get an opportunity to feature in the this year’s series. For our Warehouse Sessions, we did a mixture of new stuff from various labels and our Ontal Series/Shadow Story/Sphere Gear labels with some tunes that we were saving for a special occasion. Big respect to Rob Booth!”
“Ontal is the collaborative project from Boris Noiz and Darko Kolar, both hailing from Serbia. Focusing on the bleakest, blackest apocalyptic techno and grinding mechanoid rhythms, calm joyful rapture over the sound of burning cities and scorched wastelands.”
The main guidance for Ontal Series is to deliver and push boundaries with dark, distinctive, intense and unique sound that they have already built up in the past few years. A few releases per year will contain collaborations and remixes from various artists with whom they share similar ideas and vision. The first two tracks that were ever made after the formation of Ontal in 2011 are opening the first release in the Ontal Series. However, the B side contains 2 versions of a collaboration with a well-known noise sculptor and one of Ontal’s influences – 2nd Gen. Mastering: Black Monolith Studios Distributed by Re.Birth Distribution Release date: November
