What a fitting combination: Sigur Rós and Amtrac -- two different music worlds but a sentiment, an aim, that's one in the same -- epic sonic journeys that instill a sense of hope, magic, and love; music that constantly probes the mystery of the unkno...

For the third release on the label, they've enlisted Amtrac whose st...

I gotta say, I'm completely loving the sound of Amstrac's new single "Lover."
Released via Kitsune's Hot Stream YouTube channel, the track sees the Kentucky-based artist utilize an upbeat house sound to completely suck the listener in. Personally, ...

How many hands does it take to build one great track? In this case, six.
"What I Ask For" comes as a collaborative effort between Lou Van (based out of Copenhagen) and duo Vijay & Sofia (based out of Belgium) — a trifecta of minds handling the ...

Sometimes tracks jump out at first play. And even though this track is only a two-minute sample, Budakid's "Don't Lose Your Focus" certainly lives up to its name.
With an uptempo electronic rhythm that reminds me a bit of Booka Shade's "Tomorrow Bel...

Stereo space, delay, ping ponging reverb: technical terms I think of when I hear this track, but "Hyperspace" is more than a list of technicalities, it's a multi-dimensional experience.
Kastle (L.A.) and Amtrac (Louisville) pair up in "Hyperspace" i...
