While Kazakhstan is best known for the likes of Borat, I’d like to think there’s a new force in EDM that might just change that. His name is Farleon, and this 18 year old is showing a lot of promise already. His Millenium EP released at #9 on Beatport’s Electro House charts, and needless to say, I’m excited to see what this kid’s going to bring to the table.
The eponymous track off the EP, “Millenium,” filled with aggressively arpeggiated sequences and beautifully sidechained synths, is a guaranteed feel good jam. The second track “Living Your Life,” is my personal favorite. He takes the arpeggios, synths, and filters, only to complement them with some grimy basslines and a catchy vocal sample. Take a listen, and you’ll see what I mean. I already know what Borat is thinking (see above picture).
The Millenium EP was released 7/2 on Funkk Sound Recordings, and can be purchased here.
