Invariant by Hoavi

Peak Oil is proud to present Invariant, the first LP in three years from Russia’s best kept electronic music secret: Hoavi.

Originally intended for pre-pandemic release, this collection of emotive and intricate homages to the slippery nature of genre has only intensified in relevancy and urgency.

From alt sci-fi dimension floor-filler “Streamline” to “Dver”, a contemplative evocation of a world in which time collapsed in on itself and liquid had embraced footwork, to the propulsive modular dub-tech evisceration of “Tessera” closing out the LP, Hoavi adroitly demonstrates why he should be considered amongst Russia’s finest cultural exports.

A gifted producer with a workaholic drive, these eight tracks are but a sample of his prodigious breath and grasp on the electronic music continuum, a clear harbinger of auspicious things to come for Hoavi.
