AWAKENINGS ADE 2024
OCT 16 - 20, AMSTERDAM
A cathartic experience lies within Stephan Jolk’s emotionally-charged techno, amongst the
spiralling melodies and between the subtly-evolving layers.
A true citizen of the world, Stephan found his musical path when returning to his native Milan.
His diverse cultural influences, as well as inspiration from the intrepid sounds of artists such as
Aphex Twin and Moderat, inform the powerful, analog style he crafts from his studio.
His debut EP on Tale Of Us’ label Afterlife, released in May 2020, includes the long-awaited
‘Analogy’ and is a true statement to his flair for the dramatically epic. It occupies a space of its
own, a colourful strand of techno where the rhythms carry his gift for widescreen, euphoric
soundscapes. A bold statement from an artist at the beginning of his journey, an indisputably
unique feeling to make such a first step into the realm of consciousness.
