UTIL 06 Sorcery

Merlin Ettore, a.k.a. Sorcery, makes a bold return to ara’s UTIL series, diving deep with seven twisted, precision-engineered sonic tools crafted from his unmistakable sonic DNA. Hypnotic synth lines melt into surreal, mind-warping textures, while intricate grooves pulse with eccentric hooks and vivid sonic storytelling. Blurring the lines between function and fantasy, these tracks are built for the dancefloor, radiating unpredictable intensity and pushing the boundaries of functionality in club music. The UTIL series on ara (about recording artists), an homage to the utility and raw beauty of functional dance music, challenges the conventions of what it means to release a practical dance record in today's landscape. This new edition is available digitally, as well as in a limited art release featuring a bespoke, hand-customized tool, extending the concept of functionality into the physical realm.
