Faraone, Marco Our Freedom 12-Inch Single Vinyl

With three EPs and an A-Sides cut to his name, Marco Faraone has been an invaluable label contributor, dating back to his Drumcode debut in 2013. The Italian remains one of scene's most versatile producers, a torchbearer of both house and techno and able to craft both with masterful ease. Coming off two albums in 2020, his inspired form rolls on throughout '21, with 'Our Freedom', his memorable fourth EP contribution to Adam Beyer's label. 'Burn Down' is an evocative vocal-led trip, made just as much for the headphones as the dancefloors of the future. Led by layers of laser-kissed riffs and a resistance-leading vocal, the title track is an emotion-charged anthem-in-the-making. 'Orbital' has bags of personality and pep, bringing the vibe to a more optimistic place, with a silky melody line and plenty of effortless groove. 'Magic Sunset' is the cream on top; the percussion pulsating and punchy, as cascades of goosebump-inducing synths unfurl beautifully throughout the six-minute jam.
