about

SERA012: Satellite Era presents “Movement EP” - a collection of UK garage-inspired tracks by David Olivares, better known as Agent O.

Out now on all major platforms: smarturl.it/nb3w2l

Each download comes with a high-resolution image of the cover's background - rendered by Nic Juister.

Ascending from a monumental past year in his musical journey full of packed shows and warm memories, Chicago’s very own Agent O returns home to deliver a worthy sequel to his label debut “Somewhere In Between EP.” For his second project with us, “Movement EP” follows the same established trajectory - finding a middle ground between UKG influences and modern bass music elements.

The EP aggressively kicks things off with “That’s Enough Of That,” originally premiered as an unreleased track in our label showcase mix last year. Sonically demanding in its core, it bursts at the seams with unavoidable low-end presence and carefully placed vocal cuts. The song spins out of control in the second half as glitchy bits take over the soundscape.

“Black Book” immediately shows off its UKG direction with a percussive groove familiar to any garage head. Continuing the EP’s high tech production trend, this song encapsulates some of Agent O’s best qualities as an artist: proper drum work, animated basslines, unpredictable progression, and keen sampling abilities.

“Motion Signal” is surely where the project peaks in energy, delivering a heavy load of tear-out bass. Circulating around the bass music sphere as an ID in live sets over the past few months, this track is no stranger to sound systems and sweaty rooms. It finally sees the light of day, ready to serve as a face-melting secret weapon for dancefloors everywhere.

The title track “Movement” acts as a sensible outro to the EP. Slightly picking up the tempo, it contains characteristics of melodic dubstep that easily blend with the rest of the project. The noisy synth extends wide as the credits roll, nicely layered over the heavier bassline and familiar percussion. Riding off in the sunset, the song serves as a precedent of how emotive Agent O’s music can be.

Though similar in nature, “Movement EP” is a thematic inverse to Agent O’s previous work with us. His personalized sound effortlessly creates a distinct yet welcoming listening experience for both UKG and bass music enthusiasts. He continues to upgrade his arsenal and make sonic waves in the underground as one of Chicago’s best kept secrets.
