DJ/producer ALRT has released his much-anticipated album, Multiplicity, a harmonious blend of house genres, including tech house and bass house elements, that mirror his personal and artistic journey. The album opens with the tone-setting “Multiplicity – Intro,” a captivating cinematic piece that perfectly establishes the atmosphere for the musical ride to follow.
From there, we transition to “Familia,” a testament to ALRT’s signature bass house style that sets an energetic tempo and kickstarts the pulsating rhythm of the album. This energy continues to build with the party-ready anthem, “New Hype,” a high-throttle track that sets an exhilarating pace for the album. “City” enhances this intensity further, immersing listeners in urban tech house rhythms that effectively encapsulate the euphoria of nocturnal city life.
Next in line is “Run It Up,” a powerful, brass horn-laden anthem that electrifies with a pulsating beat, embodying an almost tactile sense of purpose. “One Time” takes listeners on an intriguing auditory detour, surprising them with a sudden transition to the bass house genre at the drop.
“Make You Move” stands out in the album for its unexpected twists and club-friendly sound, keeping listeners guessing as to what will come. This is followed by “Through The Fire,” a track that introduces captivating chaos with the integration of UK garage elements.
The album showcases a broad spectrum of influences, as seen in tracks like “Never” with its house tempo and cut-up vocals, and “Too Hot,” an invigorating bass house track full of abrupt pace changes and vocal samples that feel like a fiery crescendo.
“Air Drums” offers a welcome interlude, providing a breather with its high-energy sound. “Mother,” a sentimental tribute featuring voice samples from ALRT’s family, thus tugging at the heartstrings. The album culminates with the experimental essence of “High Status,” and the nostalgic “1985,” which recalls ALRT’s roots in trance music.
Multiplicity is more than an album; it’s a chronicle of ALRT’s musical evolution. Carefully crafted and sequenced, each track is an important piece in the narrative, presenting a refreshing addition to electronic music culture and furthering ALRT’s reputation as an innovative artist.
