  • Patrick Gräser, AKA Answer Code Request, is releasing his first EP on Delsin on April 25th. Shattering, Gräser's first EP since 2016's Neume, was written during the pandemic. Spanning four tracks, it continues to explore his signature blend of techno, ambient, rave and breakbeat. "I wasn't able to produce much in 2018/2019," he told Resident Advisor. "And in 2020/21, when the pandemic started, it was awful to produce. I was missing traveling, lack of inspiration, playing in clubs where people dance to your music. There wasn't much audience for creativity, but I had some tracks to finish. Switching things up helped boost my creativity. I thought it was time to take a new and different path. Delsin was the right choice at the right time." In the six years since his last EP, Gräser released his second album, Gens, on Ostgut Ton in 2018. This interview was published shortly after its release. Listen to "Sustaining Life."
