AUTOFLOWER & Di After are set to release ‘Energy’

On the back of a successful maiden release, Agrio Tracks returns to the stage in style with a double release by Dutch producers AUTOFLOWER & Di After. Finding each other in a shared love for house music with hints of 90’s nostalgia, the duo have found the perfect home for their two-tracker.

AUTOFLOWER has made an impact on the Dark Disco & Indie Dance scene with over forty tracks across a wide variety of labels, receiving support from a divergent list of artists that features names like Armin van Buuren, Adriatique, Joris Voorn and Fideles. With his focus now set on the revived house scene, we are sure to hear many other artists play his music in the future. 

Di After, while in an earlier phase of his career, has not gone completely under the radar either. Coming off the back of his maiden release on the British mainstay Hooj Choons and receiving support from the likes of Palms Trax, Benwal & Roi Perez, this youngster is set on an upward trajectory that will only be confirmed by this release on Agrio Tracks. 

Agrio Tracks takes inspiration from the Greek Island of Patmos. Floating in the deep blue South-Aegean sea, this island, once a refuge to the apostle Johanne, has become a modern-day haven for creatives. Here, you can marvel at centuries-old art, experience inspiring performances and become mesmerized by beautiful music wherever you go — whether you’re climbing up to the monastery of Chorá, making your way down to the harbour of Skala or settling underneath a tree at Agrio Livadi beach. 

About 2500km North West, in Amsterdam, DJ and promoter Tjade sought to distil the creative energy and essence of Patmos and create a space for young and unestablished artists to feel at home. During the ten-year process of launching his own career, Tjade found time and again how cold and distant the music label industry could be. With the launch of Agrio Tracks, he was, quite literally, creating a warm, open space for other artists to find refuge. A place that is all about the heart, the soul and naturally, the music. 

“8AM” combines energetic synths, driving bass lines and classic vocal samples with sentimental trance breaks, creating an undeniable peak time killer that will surely find its way onto many dance floors this late summer.

Going shoulder-to-shoulder with “8AM” is “Energy”. While similar in overall mood, “Energy” distinguishes itself from her sister track by leaning on a recognisable vocal lead. Accompanied by a rolling organ bass, “Energy” is the exact energy you’re looking for when kick starting any festivity.
