Alan Fitzpatrick, a British techno legend, is preparing to release his first album in over a decade, ‘Machine Therapy,’ on Anjunadeep on November 12th. He released the latest single, A Call Out For Love a couple of days ago.
We Are The Brave label boss Alan Fitzpatrick made his debut on leading dance imprint Anjunadeep earlier this year with ‘Warning Signs.’ Fitzpatrick deviates from his typical techno sound, drawing influence from electronica, breakbeat, and dub on this emotive collaboration with Lawrence Hart. Championed by BBC Radio 1’s Pete Tong and Danny Howard, and remixed by CamelPhat, the track was the first piece of music from Alan’s forthcoming LP.
The fourth single from the new album, ‘A Call Out for Love‘ feat. LOWES, follows album singles ‘W.A.I.S.T.D.’ with Bloc Party frontman Kele and ‘Bourgeois Imagery‘ with drum & bass legend High Contrast. ‘A Call Out For Love,’ a brooding melodic house track, weaves a sweeping arpeggiator with the soaring vocals of Manchester band’s lead vocalist, Evie Plumb.
“Evie’s voice blends in perfectly with the sound, and it elevates this track to a new level,” Alan says.
LOWES are coming off a string of high-profile collaborations with some of dance music’s biggest names, including Sub Focus and Franky Wah, that landed them on BBC Radio 1’s A-List. Their sound is a hybrid of underground electronic music and emotional pop.
‘Machine Therapy’ sees Alan piece together fragments of techno, breaks, house, and ambient to create a glorious window into the inner workings of one of electronic music’s most exciting, established talents. This collaboration is no different.
Anjunadeep will release ‘Machine Therapy’ on November 12, 2021. Pre-order the album here.
