Golden Features Drops ‘Flesh’, Announces Sisyphus Album Details

Today, talented Australian electronic producer Golden Features shares his latest single ‘Flesh’. The single arrives with the announcement of his forthcoming sophomore album Sisyphus, out July 7th. 

With his innovative and boundary-pushing approach to music, Golden Features continues to captivate audiences. His latest single, ‘Flesh’, showcases the experimental and unconventional sound that has become synonymous with his album Sisyphus. This track, inspired by his experiences clubbing in Berlin, exudes an industrial essence and embodies the energetic aesthetic of raves. ‘Flesh’ is a bold and dynamic composition, featuring hypnotic melodies and pulsating basslines. As the fourth track on Sisyphus, it represents the culmination of Golden Features’ rebellious spirit as an electronic music trailblazer.

Regarding the track, Golden Features said, “‘Flesh’ was one of the earlier demo’s from the album’s writing process. It was a direct response to my time in Berlin and a song that encapsulated everything I fell in love with on my journeys. I wrote it trying to express feelings of being under the weight of an 8 hour session in the rave. Overstimulated, anxious and completely terrified of facing the real world outside. Finally gathering the courage to call it a night experiencing the surreal shift that is walking out of a windowless dungeon into a beautiful sunrise.”

Along with ‘Flesh’, Golden Features has shared the announcement of his forthcoming album Sisyphus, due out July 7. Sisyphus is a reaction to the mental struggles and creative anguish he felt in the years following his 2018 debut SECT.

Describing the album, Golden Features said, “Sisyphus is a record born out of a need for change. After years of touring the same music, I found myself in a place where I was jaded and had lost the excitement that propelled me into creating music in the first place. I think this is natural when you exist in a space for any extended period of time.”

Sisyphus was inspired by the pre-pandemic nights Golden Features spent in sweaty, intimate Berlin clubs reconnecting with underground electronic music. Setting the tone with three innovative singles ‘Touch’, ‘Vigil’, and ‘Endit’, the latter of which was recently featured on the official F1 23 soundtrack, Sisyphus tests the boundaries of Golden Features’ imaginative and dynamic sound. 

Golden Features adds, “I made the decision to get back to what got me into electronic music in the first place. I flew to Berlin and was raving 4 nights a week, only stopping once COVID hit and we had to fly home. Those nights out were pure euphoria. Lining up for hours at clubs I didn’t know if I’d be let in, to see DJ’s I didn’t know, playing music I’d never heard. Dancing with strangers we met in the club. No phones, no photos. 5am sessions back at the apartment trying to find the music the DJ had played. I was a fan again and came home with broader horizons, completely re-energized.”

Currently touring USA, Golden Features is set to bring his album show to his home country Australia in August.
