Schon from Schon by Etyen
Lebanese veteran musician and producer Etyen, dubbed 'Electronica Giant' (Bandcamp Daily) releases the first of a series of singles, originally conceived as part of his live improvisational set, performed at the likes of Sonar Barcelona and RBMA Festival in Montreal, at the peak of his club performances and touring days between '16 & '19.
With influences of Melodic House, Techno & Electronica, Schon exhibits Etyen's masterful melodic compositions set to a high-energy groove, and the artist's signature organic production approach.
While Schon is very much a four-to-the-floor dance track, Etyen's use of catchy melodic hooks, and his unique creative approach of mixing raw elements, recorded vocals and dreamy synthesized sounds, give the song a timeless quality, reminiscent of the work of great artists within the realm, such as Stephan Bodzin, Nathan Fake & Rival Consoles, but with a grittier and punk-ish attitude.
Etyen is a composer, producer, & founder of Lebanese label Thawra Records.
Since his debut in 2013, Etyen’s sound has continuously resisted classification, drawing as much from global electronic currents as from the layered complexity of his surroundings, while maintaining a distinctive voice that is deeply personal & ever-evolving.
