about

“A gorgeous minimal groove with a classic vibe and modern production. Gives associations to the massive 90’s “Spin Spin Sugar" remix by Armand Van Helden” -Beatradar on “HOUSE (Single Edit)”

Having staked claim as one of electronic music’s definitive up and comers, KPT has returned with his sophomore LP, DARK.HOUSE.

True to its name, DARK.HOUSE is a continuous mix of thrilling dark house music that pays homage to the roots of the genre and plants a flag pointing toward its future. KPT’s signature deep pulsing rhythms, bubbling and frayed synths, mangled left-field vocal samples and wry hooks remain, even as the Minneapolis-based artist places his indelible mark on house music.

There is often an undercurrent of house music in KPT’s material and here, for the first time on record, he embraces the genre fully and explicitly.

Co-released with American techno and acid icon DJ ESP aka Woody McBride's Communiqué Records (home to releases from Josh Wink, Frankie Bones, DJ Hyperactive, DJ Apollo, Paul Birkin and more for the past 26 years and counting).

Design & layout by J. Lexvold.

Having always been influenced by traditional Chicago house, Midwest acid & techno, I've never had the opportunity to fully-showcase this in a non-live setting. This record as a whole, while adding dark experimentalism, is a love-letter to the originators & what I was exposed to in the mid-late 90's.

Thank you Adela, Alicia, Augustus, Autumn, Cody, Em, Ethan, Joseph, m50, Manuel, Nick & Woody.

about

KPT Minneapolis, Minnesota

In defiance of industry saturation, Minneapolis-based KPT (pronounced “KEPT”) has established himself as one of few definitive players in dark electronic. From his first single receiving Grammy recognition to being lauded in review as “brilliant”, “fiercely intelligent” & “weirdly wonderful”, KPT is “forging an ethereal aural experience all his own”.

KPT is also 1/2 of deathpop duo DEATHDANCE.
