Leon is back with a vengeance, all three new tracks I've heard so far are wonderful. He nailed that slightly melancholic sound that he was known for during the 2006-2011 years, and I love that chunky groove in the baseline.
Also, great mixing into Perpetual

This is awesome. There is indeed some Ferry elements in it, so it might be a collab.

Leon Bolier & AÏKA - Northern Moon :)​


As if the mighty Perpetual wasn't enough, the established and long time game-player Leon Bolier hits our main imprint again one last time before we leave this peculiar year. A collaboration distinguished by his own sound, euphoric pads and AÏKA. But who is AÏKA?

Released yesterday :)

Sounds much like “Worldwide”. Therefor I’d say AIKA is Super8&Tab.

But they are with Armada so wouldn’t expect a track on flashover by them....

Ner... This ain't good. Each to their own and that but it's in my 'wont listen again' pile.

Haha what's the point of being all mysterious all of a sudden, when there are sites like Discogs...

AIKA is Markus Schossow.


Plus, that off-key hit is intentional. You can hear this a couple of times in the track, both occurring in one note, as well as across a few. It actually doesn't bother me as much as I thought it would.

Also, this isn't bad, just really not for me. The style doesn't bother me at all to be honest.

He's had this alias as a secret for a while now, had a few releases on Statement! but I kinda knew it was him all along, plus the fact that he's collabed with Leon points more fingers to Marcus since they've done lots of collabs in the past :)

Are you MKY661 (or something similar) from the old place?
