<\/a>Portland producer FENRA<\/strong>,\u00a0 just unleashed his first EP Delusional<\/em><\/strong>, via 6x Records. The Santa Rosa-raised, Oregon-based artist taught himself guitar as a teenager, paved his own way by touring the States, Europe, and Asia in bands, then flipped the script toward solo electronic work. Early singles \u2018COFFEE<\/strong>\u2019 and \u2018DEEPCUT<\/strong>\u2019 already turned heads at Magnetic Magazine and CLASH, and the whole thing got polished off by Aneek Thapar<\/strong> (the guy behind cuts for Rival Consoles<\/strong> and Max Cooper<\/strong>). Anyone into the warm, intricate lanes of Caribou<\/strong>, Four Tet<\/strong>, Floating Points<\/strong>, or Bonobo<\/strong> will clock the lineage instantly.<\/p>\n Across four tracks, he moves from the tense, shuffling house pulse of \u2018DEEPCUT<\/strong>\u2019 into dulcimer-flecked ambient drift on \u2018COFFEE<\/strong>\u2019, then peaks with the footwork-leaning, broken-beat lift of\u00a0 \u2018CHICAGO<\/strong>\u2019 \u2013 all minimal synth hope, twinkling organic textures and chopped choral swells. The closing track \u2018FREE<\/strong>\u2019 keeps the energy bright but relaxed, wrapping the project in that sweet spot between club momentum and bedroom introspection.<\/p>\n FENRA<\/strong> shared: \u201cI knew from the beginning that I wanted to explore dance music in my own way, weaving in found sounds, ASMR textures, and strings. I started each song from that place, building an atmosphere and mood with a palette of sounds collected from everyday life. From there, I went into the studio with drum machines and synths, and the songs grew more dramatic than I first expected.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Delusional<\/em> EP Tracklist<\/strong>:<\/p>\n 1.
