Julien Chaptal shows us 'The Way' with his new album

Julien Chaptal is an electronic assembly — part French electronics, part Detroit synth machine, and part Dutch minimal robot (as part of MFD, Le Clic and Amsterdam661).

Purpose built with a modular brain, Julien’s performances are switched on, live, utterly groovy, and while pulsating with machine wiring, undeniably human.

Chaptal's newest record, ‘The Way’, was conceived after a few too many knobs were turned on his Octatrack, sending Julien tumbling through time and space to capture decades worth of dance floor musical influence before returning home. Recorded live along the journey — on stage, by boat, and in a camper van — The Way’s hypnotic tracks are an intimate look at the intricate circuitry composing the logic behind electronic music, showcasing where it has come, where it is now, and where it will travel to in the future.

Released on October 23 (vinyl) with special pre-sale exclusive copies available via our Awesome Soundwave & Awakenings’ ADE event on October 17th. Limited edition copies of the vinyl are still available here.
