ILIJA RUDMAN - RETROSPECTIVE EP

In the first half of 2024, the first album on our new label will be released, serving as both the starting point and culmination of the Maze project. Maze initially began as a party and later evolved into a record label, once the musical style became more precisely defined.
 
The EP will be by the artist Ilija Rudman. In 2022, Jacopo Latini shared one of his tracks with us, and we instantly fell in love with it. As we delved into the artist's discography, we realized that many of Ilija's older productions had become hard to find or extremely expensive.
 
We spoke with the Croatian artist several times over the phone, asking him to send us some music and discussing the ideal structure for the EP. We decided to shed new light on some of his old productions, combining them with unreleased tracks produced between 2005 and 2007, arguably the most prosperous period for electro house. What's intriguing about these productions is that they are elegantly blended with elements inspired by 80s sounds, creating a distinctive style.
 
The result is the Retrospective EP, a four-track album produced by Ilija, with one track edited by Grem. It will be released in the first half of 2024, distributed by Ultrasuoni, featuring artwork by Matteo Bonaldo and logo design by Alessio Cazzola.
