Silverlining announces the launch of a brand new deep techno imprint, Forgotten Chorus, with a special launch event set to take place on Saturday, March 1st at Gaffe in South London. The new label will explore a more abstract approach compared to Silverlining’s existing imprints, Silverlining Dubs and Neotropiq, embracing the deep and hypnotic realms of techno, electro, and broken beat, while amalgamating and organic textures.
The inspiration for Forgotten Chorus stems from the idea that discarded sound—much like cultural objects, spaces, and materials—can be reclaimed, reimagined, and celebrated. In a world in which we perpetually chase the sweet spot—be that in front of a speaker stack or the pursuit of a perfectly tuned lifestyle—we often overlook the beauty of discarded, derelict, ‘also-ran’ sound that falls by the wayside. Forgotten Chorus is an invitation to embrace the unfamiliar other and tune into the echoes of lost voices and abandoned frequencies.
The label’s debut release will come from Silverlining himself, a three-tracker of higher-tempo ethereal techno outings with clips set to be revealed in the coming weeks.
To mark the launch, Silverlining, with his team from Neotropiq, will host a night of extended techno sets at London's Gaffe, featuring a special guest appearance from Alex Downey, whose Outburst set at last year’s Houghton Festival was a personal highlight for Silverlining. The night promises an immersive sonic journey on a top-tier sound system, with early arrival recommended to experience the full ride.
