PREORDER
RELEASE DATE: 5/12/2023
Eomac has injected a new level of consciousness into beat-making by recording water drips and drops. This edge of real life and water frequencies feels like opening a door in your mind and taking a rhythmic sound shower, finding tiny minimal melodies within the water itself. Distorting reality, in the most beautifully crafted and playful manner, Eomac's Water Tracks are made with natural sounds of water and they not only make your body want to dance, they are a joy for the minds ear; sound design full of life and character, refreshing for the soul too. If hyper-real techno was a genre -- perhaps Eomac has invented it here -- the idea to use micro melodies found in drips, drops, and sploshes of water feels clever and inventive. Swimming upstream against the standardized sound of Techno's machine-made electronic presets. Clear vinyl and silver pantone print on sleeve.
Eomac is a project from Irish composer and producer Ian McDonnell, releasing genre-spanning electronic music via Planet Mu, The Trilogy Tapes, Bedouin Records, Killekill, Phantom Limb, Emika Records, and more. Eomac's sound draws from obscure samples and raw sound design in a continuing exploration of the furthest reaches of intense, visceral music for body and soul. He digs deep into light and dark mysticism for the dancefloor, as experienced in numerous performances at festivals and clubs across the globe.

"'Bedouin sent me samples of music from the Arab and Islamic worlds to use as source material for an EP. I was so inspired by the material I wrote over thirty tracks. My intention was to be true to its sonic qualities and resonances, but bring it stylistically into my own world of contemporary electronic music. I approached this in the spirit of cultural exchange, conscious of my privileges as a white western male able to work in this way -- only scratching the surface of another culture -- and wary of the implications of this kind of appropriation. But this was a project born of love and deep respect for the source material, the traditions, the religions, the art and the music of this part of the world. Bedouin Trax reflects all this. Unity. Togetherness. Exploring the darkness and light in humanity to find our similarities, to find a way to connect with all people, from all different cultures and backgrounds. Salem from Bedouin said that some of the Sufi songs he had sent were songs about love -- 'towards an entity of oneness'. This phrase informed the entire project.'"
