Amour Propre bring their current run of releases to Innellea's belonging imprint with
the 'Aparté' EP, rooted in indie dance but split across two different moods.
'Alpha' opens with lightly broken drums, restrained synth work and a cinematic
atmosphere. The track takes its time, building through small shifts in rhythm and texture
rather than obvious peaks. It has a slightly futuristic feel, but stays grounded enough for
the club.
'Acid Trip' is more immediate. A prominent acid line drives the track, supported by tight
drums, filtered elements and a rougher groove. There is a clear French touch to the
production, recalling the more direct and playful side of Daft Punk without turning into a
retro exercise.
The EP arrives during a strong period for Amour Propre, with the duo continuing to refine
a sound that sits between indie dance, house and more leftfield club music. 'Aparté'
captures both sides well: 'Alpha' is the more cinematic piece, while 'Acid Trip' goes
straight for the floor.
