Paris's Uppermost Shares 'Thousand Colors' Announces 'Origins (2011 - 2016)' LP Out 2/10

Today, French independent electronic artist Uppermost shares the ethereal and uplifting nu-disco jam "Thousand Colors" and announces his forthcoming Origins (2011-2016) LP out on all DSPs February 10, 2017.

Recorded in Paris between 2011 and 2016, the ambitious 23-track collection celebrates the Parisian producer's early career through today, showcasing his deft french-wave touch, liquid disco grooves, and penchant for molten guitar funk.

The 27-year-old musician (real name Behdad Nejatbakhshe) weaves in and out of genres throughout the album's 100-minute runtime, seamlessly transitioning between atmospheric and ambient, deep soulful house, and driving rhythms punctuated by pulsating bass, all while staying true to his French House roots.

"This LP is a way for me to go back to what really feels true to my heart," Behdad explains. "I wanted to take a step back, not think about anyone else's expectations, and make something I could be deeply proud of: this LP is the expression of my artistic vision without concessions."

Featuring a combination of brand new material, first-commercial release for fan-favorites Beautiful Light, Reminder, and Mistakes, and previously-released music incl breakout hit "Flashback" all hand-selected by Behdad.

The resulting LP is a decidedly cinematic, kaleidoscopic foray into warm disco nights on the dancefloor. Origins (2011 - 2016) will be released via Uppermost's own label UPPWIND.
