about

Dark Matters is proud to announce it's fourth release, Maladaptive Lover, courtesy of label boss Amirali. With his avant-garde concoction of electronica, techno and house, the EP is constructed of one original and a remix; courtesy of Midnight Operator, the duo made up of Mathew Jonson and his brother, Nathan. This is Amirali’s first sonic exercise on the label since the debut release, Fearful Stay.

“Maladaptive Lover” is built on synth melodies that give the track a spacey vibe. David Bowie played a big part in Amirali’s creative inspiration, this track is an eccentric ode to the space man, a modern and dark underground pop interpretation of Bowies influence's, the eccentric, the dreamy and the avant-garde.

Midnight Operator’s remix of “Maladaptive Lover” reinvents the track, the most dance-floor ready cut of the EP. The dreamy energy, although maintained in the synth patterns is now much more intense. The melody drives forward and doesn't linger in self contemplation as Amirali’s original tracks do. The vocals soar through the machine bleeps and faltering high end, tumbling into a crescendo.

The Dark Matters imprint is a cohesive experience where the weird and unusual is encouraged, aiming to push people to the edge of their comfort zones and keep them there. Aiming to stand out, this EP fits perfectly into the evolving compilation of releases from Dark Matters.
