The Archer Drops Debut EP ‘Lonely Dream’

There Is A Light, the brand new imprint from LA-based DJ, producer and label head Arash Homampour (a.k.a The Archer) has officially launched today with the anticipated release of his debut EP, Lonely Dream.

Kick-starting the inaugural player with the emphatic title track “Lonely Dream,” The Archer makes his intentions known from the first bars as he combines rhythmic tribal percussion and an ominous vocal hook. The track features floor-shaking basslines and strong production delivering a truly impressive debut.

“Music is transformational in its ability to instantly transport you from sadness to joy and everything in between. I wanted to establish There Is A Light Records to explore that journey of ‘the in-between’. Lonely Dream is just the first destination, with three distinct floors.” – The Archer

The Archer is also showing off his A&R skills for the first time on the label as he enlists French producer Matt Sassari to put his unique spin on the impressive opener. A pioneer of the new wave of techno that’s been sweeping across France over the past few years, Sassari’s minimalist, yet hard-hitting interpolation explores a richer underground timbre than the original.
