AIMING FOR ENRIKE have announced a new album!

Titled Empty Airports, the upcoming album from the ambient electronic duo is the follow-up to 2020’s Music For Working Out, and is scheduled to be released in January next year, via Jansen Records.

The upcoming album was recorded during the strange, silent lockdown months of 2020 and 2021. The most spacious of the band’s work so far released, the upcoming album is also the duo’s longest record, and their first double album.

Speaking about the upcoming album, the band says, “Empty Airports is our most minimalistic and ambient record so far. Most of the tracks explore simple and repetitive musical themes over long stretches of time in a warm and electronic sounding landscape. Even though there is always a red line going through our discography, this feels like a pretty big change from our previous record which we basically think of as a dance record. Empty Airports is more of a contemplative, hypnotic and introspective kind of record even though it has some pretty danceable parts.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released two songs from the upcoming album; Empty Airports pt2 and Empty Airports pt3. Speaking about the single, the band says, “a slowly growing, hypnotic and minimalistic track that goes through subtle changes in a musical landscape that is more ambient, melancholic and electronic sounding than our previous releases.”
