New Release: Gramatik - The Age Of Reason

We've been waiting for some time to get our hands on Gramatik's new music, and it's finally here. The Age Of Reason is quite possibly one of Denis's best releases yet, and all while staying true to his mantra of #digitalfreedom. From his views on our society to the very essence of the LP title, this release embodies so much more than just dope tracks.

The LP features 15 tracks, all being released off Gramatik's label, Lowtemp. The Age Of Reason (from here on it will be referred to as TAOR) is Gramatik's first full length release through Lowtemp with tons of soul in it. When listening to it for the first time, the amount of live instruments mixed together with the futuristic stylings is astounding. One could label this music as future-funk-space-jazz-blues... it is literally genre defying. It really shows how much Denis has grown musically all the while breaking the status quo of EDM.

Since his first appearance on the scene in 2009, Gramatik has been sharing all of his music, for free. In 2010 he had already released five records, and then began posting links of torrents that contained his entire discography. Thanks to this method of file sharing, Gramatik's name became an EDM household name, and spawned a very dedicated and loving fan base. His music was spread out and his shows were popping.

Gramatik is very outspoken when it comes to his views of our society and how we handle different laws. With his last album, appropriately named #digitalfreedom, he encouraged a new era of copyright law and discourse, all the while crediting torrenting to being a major factor in his success. He also is quite adamant about Nikola Tesla, his legacy, and his mindful progression living as a whole. Originally, Tesla's plan was to create free energy for all people. This mindset most definitely plays a role in how Denis shares his music. For TAOR, Gramatik made a partnership with BitTorrent to release the LP. On the download there are two special video tracks, making the connection between Denis and his fans that much closer.



The album was released on January 25th, and with a huge bang in NYC. There was an album release party over at the Best Buy Theater. The show sold out during presale. That is how dedicated the Gramatik and Lowtemp families are. While at the show, we met people from all over the East Coast, all the way down to Virginia. Gramatik shared the stage with Exmag, Gibbz, Branx, Late Night Radio and TOKiMONSTA.  The party was off the hook to say the least. Check out the Pictorial Walkthrough and photo albums to catch the fun.

The next scheduled show in America is for none other than the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheater in CO. Gramatik will be HEADLINING!! Get tickets HERE. So now you know a little more about the man and his own growing legacy. Go and download the album (link HERE) and kick it back for a little while. It's free, but please consider donating a little something to support this incredible artist. Let's get funky!
