As we move into the autumn and winter season, we're super 
excited to welcome Houston & Hamburg based duo Ivan Berkowitz & 
Matiso to ICONYC Noir with their brand new 4 track 'Berlin Bound 
EP' to warm the hearts.

We kick things off with the title track 'Berlin Bound' which 
features an amalgamation of smooth bass tones, subtle drum 
programming, a cleverly chopped samples and intricately weaved 
chord progressions, building to a beautiful breakdown before 
gradually rebuilding the elements to an unrelenting crescendo of 
breathy synth licks, chord stabs and an ever-warped bassline.

Next up is the title track 'Magnetic' which is a stripped back 
affair utilizing a hypnotizing chord as the basis of the track 
underpinned by a staccato rhythm that gradually eases its way to 
the breakdown of breaks percussive elements before unleashing 
into a rising melodic hook intertwined with the infectious 
groove that fades in and out for maximum effect. Fantastic stuff!

With 'Wisdom of Experience' Ivan & Matiso deliver and 
outstanding track that starts to delve into deeper territory, 
which sees lush pads fused with chord hits underpinned by the 
duo's trademark bass patterns, before all manner of varied 
melodies weave in and out of the stereo field proving the duo's 
superb production chops and diverse musical tapestry.

Last but not least the duo provides 'The Foundry of False Hope' 
to close out their fine debut on ICONYC Noir in style, 
showcasing beautiful orchestral strings and luscious drum 
programming to create a lovely grove, which really augments the 
flow of the track. Ivan & Matiso show their love for melodic and 
deep FX, which are oozing of coolness and are accentuated by 
warm pads that feel like a silky blanket of sonic spheres, which 
wrap you into an alluring soundscape.

Ivan Berkowitz & Matiso's 'Berlin Bound' is a lovely 
mind-bending collection of tracks that are wrapped in a smooth 
blanket of warming sounds for the progressive house loving sound 
aficionado. We are extremely happy to once again be bringing you 
a high-quality ICONYC Noir release that was made from the heart 
and for the whole universe to enjoy. Keep on dancing!!
