about

PRIMAL X is a new series within the label United Identities. The series releases music exclusively by Utrecht-based DJ and producer Thrills in +41. The platform, founded by United Identities boss Carista, draws influence from primal energy on the dancefloor derived from rhythm and repetition, as echoed on the inaugural EP 'PRIMAL X 01'.

"Nostalgia and futurism in electronic music have fascinated me a lot throughout the years as a producer and DJ," says Thrills in +41. "So I approached 'PRIMAL X 01' with classic club and contemporary sounds in mind. When creating it, I aimed to build tension with dissonant sounds that cause a slightly anticipatory feel."

'In Time' opens with a swampy bassline and an acid-flecked synthline, nodding to classic techno, paired with heavily-distorted vocals that add a creepy layer. 'Pyro One' follows suit with woody percussion and sporadic synth notes, sparking an uneasy atmosphere.

The third track, 'Crooked Shapes' rumbles with pitched-down vocals supplied by the producer himself. A squishy melody seeps through the soundscape, complemented by snappy percussion—the perfect tool to ignite that primal mood on the dancefloor. Closing tune, 'Parazoa' pulsates with off-kilter keys, steady kickdrums and fizzy sound FX to form a potent cut. A fiery end to Thrills in +41 first EP on the series PRIMAL X.

about

Thrills in +41 Utrecht, Netherlands

Following his EP Mind Express on United Identities and Skipman 1998 on Who’s Susan, both released in 2021, the aesthetic of Thrills in +41 continues to evolve. Melding freaky electro, wonky bass and pacey techno, Thrills in +41 creates tension and unusual textures throughout his music. Expect eccentric sounds, suitable for peak-time and curveball moments in a club setting. ... more
