ANDREW BAYER – DO ANDROIDS DREAM EP
In his prolific and diverse career, Anjunabeats star Andrew Bayer has already produced everything from critically acclaimed electronica LPs (see “If It Were You, We’d Never Leave) to genre-blurring big room Anjuna anthems with Anjunadeep-style deep house and orchestral pieces in between.
His latest artistic statement, the highly anticipated five-track Do Androids Dream EP effortlessly joins the dots between his seemingly disparate musical reflections; as well as giving us his two stand-out, contrasting vocal tracks with hotly tipped Danish singer/songwriter Asbjorn.
Already a celebrated anthem, the lead single “Super Human” is a forward-thinking and left field take on big room progressive; receiving a rapturous singalong reception at both Andrew’s live streamed Ultra Music Festival set in Miami and his support slot for Above & Beyond at London’s iconic Brixton Academy.
Offering a contrasting downtempo counterpoint, “Tomorrow Boys” blends the electronica textures that Bayer has explored in his more experimental moments and merges them with a leftfield pop sensibility; again expertly suppleements by Asbjorn’s distinctive tones.
Always intended to be enjoyed as a continuous 25-minute journey, the EP is bridged together by the three part Do Androids Dream pieces; which explore orchestral opening flourishes, melodic progressive and melancholic strings.
A unique and considered musical journey from a truly unique talent, Do Androids Dream is out now on Anjunabeats.
