Willaris. K shares new two-track release ft. single ‘Natural Selection’ via Soothsayer + New Year Festivals

written by the partae

Willaris. K today shares a new two-track release featuring lead single ‘Natural Selection’ which premiered on triple j’s Good Nights with Bridget Hustwaite overnight and ‘Cobaki Sky (Prequel)’ out now via Soothsayer. Listen to it HERE.

‘Natural Selection’ was first played at Forbidden Fruit Festival in Dublin to rapturous reception and continued to be a live favourite throughout the year across headline shows and festival crowds.

Of the track, Jack McAllister says, “Natural Selection/Cobaki Sky (Prequel) represents personal change and growth. Evolution. The Alchemy tour was the end of the Alchemy era for me and these are the first pieces of music coming from the perspective of my current life and the last 18 months.“

‘Natural Selection’ is the first from the Australian producer since his debut Alchemy EP and follows his sold out headline tour across Metro Theatres and Corner Hotels around the country. Second track ‘Cobaki Sky (Prequel)’ (pronounced “Kobba-KIE”), named after the sleepy township with a population of 225 outside Tweed Heads where Jack grew up, is the first part of a beautiful cinematic work and features additional production from George Nicholas of Seekae.

The two-track wraps up a busy year for Willaris. K who offered a slew of impressive releases form his breakout debut single ‘Alchemy’ to ‘River Song’, ‘Dour Nights’ and ‘Risen’, all of which have set him apart and on top of the thriving Australian electronic landscape with his unique take on arresting techno that is at once uplifting and ominous. McAllister continued through the year garnering fans across the globe including the country’s national youth broadcasting station triple j, BBC 1’s Pete Tong, multiple sold out national headline tours and acclaimed festival plays including Coachella Music & Arts Festival, Watergate Berlin, Bigsound, Laneway Festival, Splendour In The Grass, Split Milk and more. Willaris. K will round out the year with two explosive sets at New Year Festivals Beyond The Valley and Lost Paradise.

‘Natural Selection / Cobaki Sky (Prequel)’ is out now via Soothsayer, buy/stream it here.

UPCOMING TOUR DATES

Willaris. K unveils dynamic Throwing Snow remix for ‘Risen’; Australian tour starts this weekend

written by the partae

Steeped in the dark and brooding beats of Throwing Snow, the rework displays the embodiment of the UK producer’s signature style, as he laces his version of Willaris. K’s single with hypnotic and bass-driven soundscapes that seamlessly weave together with futuristic textures.

The remix follows a big year for the young producer, who shared his debut Alchemy EP featuring breakout single ‘Alchemy’, ‘River Song’, ‘Dour Nights’ which was named by BBC Radio 1’s Pete Tong as his Essential New Tune and the more recent radio favourite ‘Risen’ described by triple j as “a stunning nocturnal rave fantasy”.

In 2018, Willaris. K also made big moves live, making his debut at this year’s Coachella Music & Arts Festival and recently completed his sold-out Australia headline tour to critical acclaim. This summer, the emerging producer also recently played a number of shows in Europe, including Watergate Berlin, as well as making his UK festival debut at Forbidden Fruit Festival alongside the likes of Bonobo, Floating Points and Bicep.

Willaris. K is set to step out on his Alchemy EP Tour next week, playing sets across Sydney, Adelaide, Perth, Brisbane and two huge sold-out Melbourne shows, with support from UK DJ/producer Theo Kottisand local acts Beatrice, LonelySpeck, Pat Carroll and Rossen Culture.

Willaris. K shares new video for ‘Perpetual Love’; touring Aus this October

written by the partae

Willaris. K (Jack McAllister) is excited to share the new video for ‘Perpetual Love’ lifted from his recently released debut Alchemy EP out now via Soothsayer (ANZ). Directed by celebrated Australian director Kris Moyes, the video pulsates across cinematic landscapes that match the mesmerising intensity of the track. McAllister says of the track, “The Alchemy EP is based around themes of transformation and movement, seeing light in the dark. Perpetual Love is exactly that.”

The news of the video comes off the back of last week’s Alchemy Art Exhibition held in Sydney andMelbourne, showcasing video stills, along with a few installation pieces from the previously released ‘Alchemy / River Song / Dour nights’ video trilogy and ‘Risen’ video by long-time collaborator Yeoseop Yoon.

‘Perpetual Love’ is the fifth and final song to be taken off Willaris. K’s debut Alchemy EP, a full 7-track mini album that moves between his signature blend of thick industrial techno and sparse pensive melodic moments. The Alchemy EP features his previous singles – the breakout debut single ‘Alchemy’, ‘River Song’, ‘Dour Nights’ which was named by BBC Radio 1’s Pete Tong as his Essential New Tune and the more recent radio favourite ‘Risen’ described by triple j as “a stunning nocturnal rave fantasy”.

Following his debut festival set at Coachella Music & Art Festival this April along with his debut sold out headline tour, Willaris. K will round out 2018 with festival sets at Beyond The Valley and Lost Paradise and his final national headline tour this October with supports from Theo Kottis, beatrice, Lonelyspeck, Pat Carroll and Rossen Culture. See dates and details below.

Willaris. K shares new video for ‘Risen’; Alchemy EP out today via Soothsayer

written by the partae

‘Risen’ is the fourth song to be taken off Willaris. K’s debut Alchemy EP, a full 7-track mini album that moves between thick industrial techno and sparse pensive melodic moments. The Alchemy EP features his previous singles – the debut single ‘Alchemy’ that saw Willaris. K break through with airplay on triple j and Sydney’s FBi Radio, followed by ‘River Song’ and ‘Dour Nights’ which was named by BBC Radio 1’s Pete Tong as his Essential New Tune – as well as four new tracks, which together explore themes of transience, movement, darkness and currents.

They all capture the period of time where McAllister went from being an electrical instrument technician working the state border substations by day and bedroom producer by night to a full-time musician, songwriter and producer. In that process, the piano-trained artist grappled with the frustration, self-doubt, introspection and triumph that comes with change. Alchemy was written over a period of almost two years spent creeping in and out of underground raves, digging up and twisting old samples, or recording the bones of songs as iPhone voice memos and then building them out.

“The tracks are a reflection of my life at that time,” he says. “It was a big transition period for my mindset, going from music being a fun hobby with no pressure, to self doubt, to finally backing myself. Eventually, I let go of the expectations I’d put upon myself realised I can make whatever I want, because that’s where the most interesting ideas came from.”

Many of the tracks on the EP were built with his live shows in mind — which makes sense, given Willaris. K was born when Jack started making edits to play in his DJ sets.

But the overarching vision for Willaris.K’s music has always been simple: “It has to make me feel something on an extreme scale.”

The Alchemy EP follows a whirlwind 2017 that saw Willaris. K sign with tastemaker label Soothsayer and international talent agency WME, as well as stepping up for sets around Australia, New Zealand, America and Europe. Willaris. K’s EP release week saw him play a sunrise set at a warehouse in Slovenia supporting Joris Voorn, a heaving DJ set at iconic Berlin club Watergate and hypnotising a packed tent at Dublin’s Forbidden Fruit Festival – his debut European festival. Watch it back here.

Across the span of those 4 tracks – which were accompanied by an arresting 12 minute video trilogy for River Song/Dour Nights – McAllister played an unrivalled number of festival shows in Australia and New Zealand.  In 12 months, the brand new artist graced festival audiences with over 25 live sets brimming with his trademark punk-influenced stage presence – all ahead of his international debut at Coachella this April and debut sold out headline tour including two sold out nights at Sydney’s Oxford Art Factory and three nights in Melbourne at the Northcote Social Club (x2) and Hugs & Kisses.

Fans of Willaris. K can catch him on the road this September/October across his national EP tour. See dates and details below.

Willaris. K shares new single ‘Risen’ and details of his debut Alchemy EP; Australian tour starts this week!

written by the partae

Willaris. K today shares his new single ‘Risen’, which premiered on triple j’s ‘Good Nights with Bridget Hustwaite’ overnight. Taken off his eagerly-awaited debut EP, Alchemy out via Soothsayer this June, ‘Risen’ is yet another taste of Willaris’ signature take on dark electronica. For Willaris. K, it’s all about movement and emotion, warping ambient field recordings into textured beats and forge together inventive melodies, reminiscent of the intensity of ‘Open Eye Signal’ or the mesmerising loops of ‘Parallel Jalebi’. Listen to it now.

Willaris. K says of the track, “Risen was a bit of a breakthrough where I blocked out everything that was happening around me and just wrote something that was a reflection of how I was feeling at the time. I was taking my laptop everywhere, recording random sounds through my laptop mic, going into old ideas and being overly ruthless on them by deleting everything but a few elements that I thought had potential to become something new.”

The release of ‘Risen’ follows the producers impressive first international festival play at Coachella Music & Arts Festival alongside locals Alison Wonderland, Yahtzel and Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever. McCallister returns home to embark on his debut headline tour, which saw venue upgrades and sold out shows in the first 24 hours of on-sale. The tour starts this weekend and stops off in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. Tickets are on sale now, see dates and details below.

Willaris. K began 2017 completely unknown. In the span of 12 months, the young producer from the Northern Coast of NSW (real name Jack McCallister) released his debut single ‘Alchemy’, and with that one track alone, received heavy national radio airplay including triple j and beloved community stations such as FBi Radio and 3RRR alike, supported acts such as George Fitzgerald and Seekae and toured the country playing explosive festival sets at Splendour In The Grass, Groovin The Moo, Laneway Festival and more.

Willaris. K returned in late 2017 with music that exceeded the hype. Armed with follow up tracks ‘Dour Nights’ and ‘River Song’, McCallister traded in his tradie tools for synthesisers, penned a worldwide deal with WME, signed to Soothsayer and Mushroom Music Publishing and was quickly heralded by global tastemakers such as BBC Radio 1’s DJ Pete Tong, as one of the most exciting producers of the year.

‘Risen’ is out now, buy/stream it here.

Willaris. K reveals two new tracks ‘River Song’ and ‘Dour Nights’ in video trilogy; signs global booking agency deal with WME; BIGSOUND next week – THE PARTAE

written by the partae

WILLARIS. K REVEALS TWO NEW TRACKS ‘RIVER SONG’ AND ‘DOUR NIGHTS’ IN VIDEO TRIOLOGY

SIGNS GLOBAL BOOKING AGENCY DEAL WITH WME
BIGSOUND NEXT WEEK

Willaris. K today reveals two tracks ‘River Song’ and new single, ‘Dour Nights’ in an uniquely captivating video trilogy. Watch it below:

Made by Sydney producer and director Yeoseop Yoon in collaboration with Willaris. K, the 12-minute short film acts as a video clip trilogy for the track ‘Alchemy’ and two new songs ‘River Song’ and ‘Dour Nights’. Shot over 3 days in the NSW countryside, the film follows the idea that transformations need an agent; Alchemy is a chemical change, River Song represents a tidal change and Dour Nights, a disguised change. Cleverly captured, this forlorn narrative of father and son, matches a soundtrack just as compelling and progressive as the performance.

Tracks ‘River Song’ and ‘Dour Nights’ present audiences with a second and third taste of Willaris’ unique take on moody electronica, with a depth and level of sophistication in his production yet to be touched by other producers before him.

Willaris. K shares, “Doür Nights, as represented in the film is the feeling of that moment you let go of whatever it may be holding you back. It has come through many forms and it’s definitely taken the longest out of any other track to finish. River Song is basically a live, one take iPhone recording. You can actually hear me whisper to myself “Don’t fuck it up” in there somewhere. It is the turning point emotionally in the video.“

The new music and video follows a busy year for the 23-year old producer Willaris. K, otherwise known as Jack McAllister who only five months ago, took his first day of a year long annual leave to pursue music full time. With only one track under his belt, Willaris. K has been heralded by national tastemakers as one of the most exciting producers of 2017, supported the likes of Seekae and George Fitzgerald and played explosive sets at Splendour In The Grass, Groovin The Moo, Volumes Festival and more. Willaris. K recalls, “After I released Alchemy, the reception to it exceeded my expectations. At that time, I was still working full time as an Electrical and Instrument Technician (the footsteps you hear throughout are an iPhone recording taken from me walking on a tray I maintained at work) which only left me nights after work to work on new music.“

Willaris. K rounds out a big year with the news of his recent signing to one of the world’s largest talent agencies, William Morris Endeavor (WME) across Australia, the U.K. and the U.S., joining artists such as The Weeknd, Skrillex, Death Grips, M.I.A. and more.

Fans of Willaris. K can catch him playing a series of shows across Australia’s annual BIGSOUNDconference and a run of festivals to close out the year. See dates and details below.

PRAISE FOR WILLARIS. K

“THINK LOCAL ACT GLOBAL – Did Flume have a debut cut as confident as Alchemy? I’m gonna go ahead and say no. That’s a good sign for this 23-year-old upstart. Alchemy is filling dancefloors with ease and wise heads are saying the right things.”
Courier Mail 

“Willaris has since released his debut single, ‘Alchemy’, and it rips…On ‘Alchemy’ this relative newcomer tinkers with some really thoughtful, intricate beats and textures that could have easily slid from a Bonobo LP, and has built them around a beaut house beat and brooding synthesisers. As subtle as it’s packed, this is the first true club jam of 2017.”
Mixdown Magazine

“Willaris. K; the king”
Pilerats

“The best of Australian electronic often arises from the most unexpected places. Proving this is Willaris. K., an exciting producer out of New South Wales’ northern coast that has stunned with the release of his debut single Alchemy. Put simply, Alchemy is an absolute stunner. Its deep rifts of Seekae-esque synth creates an aural texture like nothing I’ve ever heard, building and building as it travels its five-minute journey, twisting and turning along the way. At parts, it’s fierce and powerful, punching through aural limitations and escaping boundaries, but other parts it’s restrained and held-back, slowly washing you over with waves of synthesizer and a Bonobo-esque drum pattern that oozes underneath.”
Pulse Radio

“…in 2017, coastal New South Wales is taking centre stage and WILLARIS. K is leading the charge. The producer has just released his debut track ‘Alchemy’ and it’s a moody adventure through light electronic sound.The textures in ‘Alchemy’ work together to create a melody that is completely unique and switches from harsh digital tones to airy atmospherics effortlessly. The song sounds like a walk through a dark jungle, intriguing, surprising, dark and mystical.”
Purple Sneakers

“He creates a delicate tension between the layers of the track, rough bass synth textures hum under the intricate top line that flows through the track. It gives you both moments of harsh tension and euphoric freedom within moments of one another, each end of the spectrum colliding into one another in a release of pure sonic beauty.”
Sound Doctrine

“…spacey, nighttime bumper ” “There’re a lot of neat little production quirks you can pick out, each adding a little extra texture to the thing” “Its nice to have already found a clever a producer to hang my hat on in 2017 and my hands have seen very little labour in the process. More of this, this year please.”
Soundproof Kennel

“WILLARIS. K IS THE BROODING AUSSIE BEAT-MAKER YOU NEED TO HEAR”
Stoney Roads

“Where the hell did Willaris K come from? Well, he hails from Northern Coast NSW, but his debut single ‘Alchemy’ came seemingly out of nowhere. It’s a deep, intense, textural synth instrumental we first caught over at triple j Unearthed. Linda Marigliano says it got her feeling like “a fly, buzzing amongst the apocalypse and this is my soundtrack” in her 4-star review.”
