Undermind Records is proud to showcase the NYC / London-based talent Gratuit for its latest release.
Gratuit’s newest single “Movin’“ encapsulates a determination to keep moving forward in life, even in the face of adversity. The song’s core is driven by a pulsating arpeggiator melody, which pierces through a heavy rolling sub-bass line and intermittent synth stabs. Its uplifting yet hypnotic melodic breakdown is carefully inserted between an otherwise aggressive and demanding groove.
Discreetly road-tested by Undermind artists at recent events, this track is known to rock any club at peak time.
Born in America and bred in Europe, Gratuit is an artist with a refined approach to electronic music. A purposeful musician whose original sound blends warmer organic and darker synthetic elements, his music delicately merges the intensity of dance floor percussion with the elegance of melodic composition.
Gratuit began DJing at clubs in Belgium at a young age, which gave him an early fascination with the worlds of House and Techno music. When he later moved back to his native country, he established a permanent musical home in New York City to DJ regularly and elevate his own music productions.
With an unrelenting base of support in New York and an ongoing residency at Bloop London Radio, Gratuit is now focused on exporting his signature sound to the far reaches of the world.
Undermind is a creative collective, music label and animation studio inviting our community into deeper self-discovery by asking: Who are you when you’re free?
A love letter to 90’s warehouse raves, freedom of expression is the only rule. Our community finds beauty in difference of opinion, style, and identity—getting lost in the unknown, wholly immersing ourselves in the microcosm of the moment.
Everything we do questions fundamental human truths, challenging each other to reevaluate perceptions of reality in favor of a better, more inclusive tomorrow.
Our inspiration comes from the origins of rave culture, before phones lit up the dance floor, with hyper-digital looks into the future. All Undermind artists and their artforms have total freedom to create and collaborate without reservation, building a supportive, creative-first community. So far, this has culminated into a multi-year podcast, 3D animation studio, and experience driven events and galleries.
It’s time for us to break away from the predictive mundane to build the world we crave. No matter how you got here, we celebrate who you are.
Welcome home.
