Swiss producer Agnès presents the debut full-length release of his house music project, Cavalier. A Million Horses will only be released as a double vinyl with an additional CD containing the entire LP plus 9 bonus tracks. Cavalier aka Agnès is known for his deep, dubbed-out minimal techno productions that also explore more house-influenced rhythms and textures. Agnès runs the Geneva-based label Sthlmaudio Recordings and has recently started to collaborate with the Zürich-based label Drumpoet Community under the moniker of Cavalier. Kindly play this album loud and with a lot of bass in a dark room. Liner notes, Alex Dallas, Zürich, April 2011 (A&R Drumpoet Community and owner of Zukunft, Zurich): "I met this humble, proud and very interesting guy from Geneva, Switzerland almost 10 years ago at a really crazy club which was called Dachkantine in Zurich. From the first moment, I knew that this guy is one of the few artists who really just follows his pure and dedicated love for music. No compromising, pleasing or bullshitting -- that's Agnès. A great buddy to party with, an open-minded spirit and a truly gifted music producer, live act and DJ. Welcome to his world. For almost a decade he has been pushing boundaries with a raw, deep and cutting edge sound which is always refreshing and truly personal. With his very own Sthlmaudio Recordings he has possibly established a new form of house music which is rooted in spaced-out dub, bouncy boogie as well as in rough techno and has also released many great tracks on the side for labels like Plak, Ornate, Perspectiv and Resopal, to name just a few. The amount of releases is hard to predict as he likes to come up with new project names like Ray Valioso, Benelli or Cavalier. As Cavalier, he released in 2008 his first EP for us entitled Ride 'Em. When we asked him for more tracks to do another 12", he sent us around 40 tunes with a sound which blew us away. Can it get any deeper than this?"
