Obstinacy

Label co-founder Tal Fineman launches new alias Faulter with Obstinacy, a 4-track EP that showcases the cutting edge of contemporary club sounds from across the continent.

Spanning a broad BPM spectrum and the energy of a club from open-to-close, Obstinacy balances heads-down groove with a meticulous, measured approach to songwriting.

A record of two halves, the EP opens with two peak-time bombs designed to ignite warehouse dancefloors worldwide. First up is the unrelenting techno weapon Perspectives—a must-add to your wormhole playlist—followed by Data Spike, a slamming electro wobbler with serious in-your-face attitude.

On the 'B-side', the focus shifts to deeper, more organic textures. The minimal-leaning title track, Obstinacy, calls to mind Dorisburg-like precision and versatility, making it a perfect layering tool for such inclined DJs. The EP closes with Zaf, a brooding, dub-inflected gem that rounds out the release on a moody note, and one that signals much more music to come…

For fans of: Martyn, Konduku, Azu Tiwaline.

A remix EP is soon to follow, having enlisted Forest Drive West, Yushh, Beatrice M. and Syz, with each track getting the VIP treatment.
