On May 17, All Day I Dream family member Fulltone is poised to return to the label, transporting listeners into a state of serenity with the release of his latest body of work, the Alba EP. This EP promises a journey into the depths of organic and melodic house music, blending diverse beats, hypnotic rhythms, and ethereal melodies into a beautiful tapestry of sound.
Rooted in his upbringing amidst a wide variety of musical influences, including the likes of Alan Parsons, Pink Floyd, Nirvana, and Trentemøller, Fulltone’s sonic palette has been shaped by a diverse array of sounds spanning genres and generations. A multi-instrumentalist at heart, Fulltone has mastered many tools of the trade, from more common instruments like the guitar, keyboards, and bass guitar, to rare treasures like the Greek Bouzouki, Turkish Cumbus, and Turkish Saz. Having already released eleven tracks on All Day I Dream, Fulltone has contributed many great works to the ADID catalog.
In crafting the Alba EP, Fulltone embraces the endless expanse of creativity. Reflecting on the elusive nature of inspiration, he compares it to the act of fishing, where patience and persistence are essential to reel in moments of brilliance. “Sometimes you catch a fish immediately, sometimes it takes hours or days, but you won’t catch any fish unless you go to the sea with a fishing line. In my case, the sea is my studio and the fishing line is my instruments.”
A standout track from the Alba EP is ‘Make Believe’, featuring vocals from Shyam P. The track begins with an elaborate percussive pattern, instantly kicking things off with a groove. As a lone synth note is introduced, tension rises as energy slowly builds. When a deep bass enters the mix, we hear Shyam P’s vocals for the first time, instructing the listener to “make believe”. In the latter half of the track, playful melodies juxtapose commanding low ends, creating a serene oasis covering the full spectrum of sound.
In the months following the Alba EP release, Fulltone has an exciting lineup of releases and live performances. He’ll drop a single on Klassified and a collaborative EP with Parallelle during the Summer. On the tour front, catch Fulltone at Sandbox Festival in Gouna on May 17th, Goat Community festival in Portugal on July 7th, Geneva on July 10th, and a Canada tour at the end of July covering Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. Plus, mark your calendars to catch Fulltone performing at All Day I Dream Ibiza on September 23rd, with more ADID dates to come.
The Alba EP by Fulltone will be available digitally on all major streaming platforms on May 17, 2024, and physical records will be available June 14, courtesy of All Day I Dream.
