01.07.10 - AFS_00.7 COMING SOON! The Finnish future wave funk returns to Abstract Forms! The first in a series of various artist EPs, Abstract Forms brings you the first Combined EP of 2010 and this time we bring you future wave funk from Finnish electro duo, Morphology and also solo material from Michael Diekmann under his CRC guise. An exciting concept, the EP is split into two halves: Side A, Morphology - Showing hints of Kraftwerk, Drexciya and Dopplereffekt all glued together with a modern twist of acidic undercurrents and razor sharp electro beats. It's gritty electro music with guts! Side B, CRC - Deep futuristic excursions into the realms of simple electronic beats, warm pads and beautiful melodies. It's forward thinking electro music for the 21st century. The perfect tonic for the start of the winter months.

Fine quality electro music is hard to find these days. While many labels focus on the latest trend, Abstract Forms continues its mission to release straight up electronic music with a good deal of substance. Introducing ‘Morphology’, an exciting new collaboration from Finland consisting of Michael Diekmann who records under the alias CRC and Matti Turunen otherwise known as Näköradiomies. Morphology fuses early electro sounds with haunting melodies to create a deep blend of atmospheric future funk. It’s a carefully conceived soundscape of contemporary electro music that is a perfect addition to the Abstract Forms catalogue. Release date:  Early October Format: Vinyl with hand stamped inserts, encased in plastic covers and limited to 200 copies worldwide. 19.05.09 - Slight delay on AFS_00.4 Unfortunately due to a pressing fault AFS004 will be delayed by 3 or 4 weeks. Sorry for any inconvenience but the metal work wasn’t up to the usual standard. Its being repressed now and has a new release date of 15.06.09. 30.04.09 - Website Relaunch Welcome to the re-launch of Abstract Forms v3.0 website. I’ve spent the last couple of months rebuilding my website after an unfortunate ‘hacking experience’ left me without a website. Further more my distributor went bust at the end of 2008 so as you can imagine I haven’t had the best start to the year. However I’m pleased to say that I now have a new distributor and as you can see, a nice new website. 31.03.09 - AFS_00.4 Kirk Degiorgio EP! AFS_00.4 - Kirk Degiorgio - Jitter World Kirk needs no introduction, as a long-serving electronic music devotee, a quick glance at Kirk's discography shows the scale this extraordinary talent has contributed to electronic music over the years. It is therefore with huge excitement that Abstract Forms brings you 'Jitter World'. Featuring three tracks of deep techno business, 'Jitter' is a full-on, peak-time dance floor mover with extra drive, that will undoubtedly appeal to the DJs as well as the deep techno lovers amongst us; whilst 'Back In My Head' and 'Traject' lay focus more toward the deeper end of the techno spectrum. It’s Kirk’s groove on the dance floor and his deeper experimental electronics that make this EP fit perfectly within the Abstract Forms ethos. Anyway don’t take my word for it, check the samples above! Release date:  25th May 2009 Hand stamped inserts, encased in plastic covers and limited to 200 copies worldwide. 24.03.09 - Deixis EP 2 (AFS_00.2) delayed So its been a very slow start to the year and unfortunately the inconvenience has meant I’ve had to reschedule the up and coming Deixis AFS_00.2 EP till much later in the year, but the really great news is that I will release a very limited replacement by none other than Kirk Degiorgio, . . . yes that’s right Kirk Degiorgio!
