about

The irrepressible and prolific Saytek drops yet another collection of solid, upbeat and incredibly, totally live, tracks on us in the form of his latest LP; “Motifs from the New World”.

Recorded entirely live to 2-track in his studio whilst in lockdown during the 2020 global pandemic, Saytek has imbued this collection of works with his ever-present sense of optimism and hope and spiced it with a rather more considered approach. It is a testament to our shared experience in the last 18 months and a tribute to all of those that still dance, even if it is in the confines of their own home.

It is a call to action to keep moving, keep connecting and to keep dancing. A clarion call to the never give up spirit that we all possess, if, at times, we need to dig deep to find it.

“Motifs from the New World” offers us all a sense of joy in the midst of upheaval and change. Perhaps it’s a reminder that all is changing and the world is always new.

Introducing the album will be the single “Isolation (live)” which will be released August 13 in the lead up to the full LP release on September 24.

As Saytek himself describes his experience:

“As a live artist I was used to making music to take on tour with me, suddenly with Covid19 that all changed. It was a time of great reflection and nostalgia for my life long love of electronic music and also my cherished life jumping on planes, trains and taxis to perform live to tightly packed crowds. But It was also a time to make music, lots of music and make the music from the heart without the pressure of a big stage at a festival or a gig at one of Berlin’s well known venues hanging over me.

I have always enjoyed listening to dance music out of the clubbing environment. One thing I discovered though was that my fans also craved this music even though they couldn’t go and dance. So I continued on this path and streamed my music. Suddenly I had over a million views across a handful of sets and lots of love and support from people all over the world in lockdown! This really blew me away!

The music on offer here is a result of the first year of Covid restrictions. It’s undoubtedly dance floor music and it's undoubtedly nostalgic at points but it's also music made with the future in mind and a hope that the pandemic will bring us back to a more grassroots dance culture as it has proved as a testament to how strong house and techno is!
Dance music can bring people together regardless of whether they can dance together in the same space or not! “

Coinciding with the release of the album, Saytek will be hosting a launch party at the famous Brighton Music Conference. This will be taking place on the 23rd of September amongst the settings of Water Bear. During the launch Saytek will also be taking part in a panel discussing live performance, alongside many other talents, and experienced artists throughout the day.
