Aaand it is release day!

"It's like nothing I have ever done before."

For the past ten years, the Bulgarian-Turkish artist Alper Durmush aka Impérieux has been carefully developing his artistic style and building strong momentum with a high-profile following.

Тhe young Berlin-based producer enters a fresh chapter with his EP named “Extensions” on Sofia Records’s eight release. It is filled with brisk, forward-looking breaks, raw jungle attitude and highly combustible house. In all this we can still trace Impérieux's emotional signature interwoven into delicate soundscapes and ethno antics.

The place to kickstart this new direction is a symbolic one and in a way - coming back home. In his five-tracker, Impérieux keeps consistent with Sofia Records’ establishment as a breeding ground for hyper-energetic, yet intelligent sound.
And to do the honours, a signature stomping remix has been added by the label headmeister himself - KiNK.

Tracklist:
A1 Impérieux - Extensions
A2 Impérieux - Stare
B1 Impérieux - Desert Viper
B2 Impérieux - Show
B3 Impérieux - Desert Viper (KiNK Remix)

All songs written & produced by Alper Durmush
B3 remix and additional production by Strahil Velchev

The first EP is out and we could not be more excited.
Now tell us what you think, preferably on the dancefloor :)

Today we are launching with my old friend / local music activist , with the massive help by / and the guidance by my close friends and family. Sofia is the name of my hometown, but also means Wisdom in the Hellenistic philosophy. We are proud of what we’ve learnt all these years in arts and living experience and we are ready to share it with the world, starting with a record by yours truly, which is a very personal one. I hope - followed by many others. KiNK - Home e.p. Is available on all platforms. Mix preview of the whole record - https://soundcloud.com/sofia-records/preview-kink-home-sof001

Energy is never lost. It is only transferred!

A self-released compilation of our DJ collective “P***o BPM” around 2002. A chapter of Techno, Jazz, DnB, House and just.. our sound. P***o bpm was all about “everything goes, raw and direct”. Everyone on that CD is still producing and performing, some of us with new names as KiNK and Sub - now became Lesnik. We are meeting more often lately and new people as and are joining our sessions in Sofia. Old meets new. I don’t know what exactly will be the outcome of all this, but there is new energy around us and I wanted to share my excitement about it! @ Sofia, Bulgaria
