Having recently collaborated for ‘14,000 km Away, Berlin’s Philip Bader now makes his solo debut for Davide Squillace’s boundary pushing This And Thatimprint with a 5 track EP named Julia – set for release on 22nd December. Title track Julia is a perfect combination of driving beats and snapping high hats, showcasing Baders technically proficient production. ‘Yeppa’ follows, and crafts a true dancefloor killer with signature pounding drums and intelligently structured effects, whilst Walking Away takes the EP into a dark, atmospheric direction. ‘Funkey Feeling rounds off the EP, and as the title suggests is a more upbeat offering that adds a distinct groove to proceedings – with eclectic Barcelona-based duo Haiku 575 providing a melodic remix of their own. The label’s clear focus on combining the worlds of art, culture and music provide a perfect platform for ‘Julia’s’ deep, techno sound, with release artwork specifically commissioned by This and That. Continuing their longstanding relationship with art collective Galleria Fonti, Angolean artist and photographerKiluanji Kia Henda was distinguished by the magazine Foreign Politics as one of the Leading Global Thinkers of 2014, and his work aims to draw attention to issues of race, power dynamics and global relations. With a steady output of releases on esteemed labels such as Get Physical, Saved and Moon Harbour, Philip’s latest EP for This And That is a direct reflection of his explorative approach to production. Having received widespread support from the likes of Santé, Anja Schneider, Pirupa and many more, ‘Julia’ takes Philip into 2015 with strong ammunition for the dance floor.
