Italian producer 19:26 has made a highly anticipated return to Afterlife, one of electronic music’s most influential labels, with his new five-track EP, The Passage. The release is a masterful showcase of his distinctive sound, blending ambient textures, neoclassical elements, and emotive techno into a captivating sonic journey.
The Passage features a series of powerful collaborations and impressive solo cuts. The EP opens with the deep and atmospheric ‘Overrated‘, a collaboration with fellow Afterlife artist MRAK. He then teams up with Yubik for ‘Relax Your Mind,’ a track built on a rubbery bassline and raw claps that build into a turbulent crescendo.
On his solo tracks, 19:26 demonstrates his versatility. ‘Resurge‘ is a vocal-led anthem that builds with poignant emotion, while the closing track, ‘Nocturne,‘ is a synth-heavy masterpiece that is both magnificently expressive and melodic. The EP also features the collaborative effort ‘All The Time‘ with Layla Benitez.
With this release, 19:26 solidifies his position at the forefront of the melodic techno scene, proving once again why he is a key artist for the Afterlife label.
