Tangible Dreams by Alex Albrecht & GRANT

Enigmatic recording artist GRANT, a longtime staple of the deep house and techno underground, has collaborated with Alex Albrecht, to share the title track ‘Tangible Dreams’ out August 8th from their incoming EP out on August 29th.

The duo became connected with one another through their mutual ties to the esteemed Scissor & Thread label and close friend Francis Harris, and through the relations established a working connection that allows for a creative fusion. The upcoming EP is a deep and textured homage to the late '90s dub techno scene, echoing the atmospheric works of labels like Basic Channel and Chain Reaction, while maintaining a distinctly modern flair. Throughout the project, the duo aimed to create timeless tracks that are understated, groove-focused, and rich in sonic depth.

Talking on the release and the collaboration, GRANT explains: “I've been a fan of Alex’s work for some time,” Grant says. “When we met through Francis and the Scissor & Thread connection, it felt natural to collaborate. This EP is the kind of music I love to play, tracks that aren’t flashy or trendy, but that hold up and grow on you over time.”
With over two decades of record collecting and music production under his belt, GRANT has become known for his warm, ethereal take on house music, often through vinyl-only classics and acclaimed releases on labels like Lobster Theremin, Mörk, and his own imprints. What’s more, his albums ‘The Acrobat’, ‘Cranks’, ‘Perception’, and ‘Fantasy Blues’ have all become collectors classics, earning him a loyal following among crate diggers and deep house heads alike. Meanwhile, Alex Albrecht, who has garnered a strong reputation for his immersive and improvised performances, has played at esteemed locations such as Paradise City in Belgium, MNMT in Denmark, Public Records in New York, and Giant Steps in London. Moreover, alongside this he has also released on esteemed labels like Anjunadeep and Mule Musiq, and his own Analogue Attic imprint.

With a multitude of previous releases that have gone on to prove rarities in the hands of many, GRANT’s collaboration with Alex Albrecht feels no different. ‘Tangible Dreams’ is certainly a release that will be one for the history books.

Unified.

You come to a halt, with the concrete forest forming on the horizon. Home, as you once knew it, but this is an empty husk with all you know now.

Through the myths and people you’ve met across your adventure, you know this place is forever a hollow reminder of what could have been. Men fulfilled by greed and desire to conquer the world live in these ivory towers.
