Purelink are more than the sum of their parts - formed in 2020, the trio (consisting of Millia, kindtree, & Concave Reflection) has amassed a loving fanbase worldwide for their fusion of influences - from the rhythmic depth & detailed sound design of speaker-knocking contemporary bass music, the enveloping sub bass, sway of dub, & the classic chillout IDM styles of aqueous swirls & textural ambient scapes.
Bringing in a distinctly modern flair with innovative groove programming to their recordings & live performances, their music touches upon the effervescent emotional realms & limitless technological potential of Mille Plateaux Y2K-era experimental ambient styles - one eye towards the past & one on the future, yet lucidly present for the catharsis of poignant dancefloor moments or an evening of heads-down introspective electronic journeying.
Honing in on their sound in a shared space in their hometown of Chicago, the trio relocated to Brooklyn. As recent additions to the Lot Radio residency roster, they are cementing their place in one of North America’s most exciting spheres of electronic music.
Already garnering praise for their concise discography since 2021’s acclaimed Bliss/Swivel EP, their most recent 2023 album Signs, on the legendary Peak Oil imprint, has catapulted them into the hearts and minds of even more fans the world over, an already future classic album with rave reviews and appearances on numerous year-end lists (Pitchfork, Resident Advisor, FADER, Crack Magazine, and more).
Purelink return to Peak Oil for their next full length release Faith out June 6th. With vocal features from Loraine James and a spoken word contribution from Angelina Nonaj, the new project offers a fresh take on their acclaimed signature sound. Coverage includes the April Crack Magazine cover story, plus additional forthcoming interviews with Pitchfork, Abelton, DJ Mag, and more.
Racking up numerous gig appearances with fellow innovators Huerco S, Tirzah, Loraine James, & DEBONAIR in addition to memorable sets at Sustain-Release, Purelink have honed in their improvisational/engaging live & DJ sets to bring around the world - always evolving and orbiting their unique and heartwarming core.
