Hunter/Game Announce Adaptation Album Tour

Known for dramatic dance tunes that previously found their way onto labels such as Innervisions, Last Night On Earth or global event brand / record imprint Just This, Italian duo Hunter/Game has evolved its sound into a uniquely expressive, yet subtly arranged variant of techno – music that confidently takes centre stage, but never puts the sonic means before its aesthetic goal.Emmanuele Nicosia and Martino Bertola’s album debut on Kompakt, Adaptation bundles the most accomplished facets of their output so far, but also refines it – produced during the hot Milanese summer, the pair decided to retreat to a chalet in the Dolomite Alps, near a ski resort closed for the season, where they’d find just the right dose of inspiration in the deserted landscape. “That is basically where the Hunter/Game monicker is coming from”, they explain, “walking alone through the silent nights, in the darkness of the mountains. It just has this profound impact on you, seeing a place that you only know bustling with human activity uncovered and naked, realizing to what extent human presence has somehow contaminated that piece of nature.” It’s a place “where you go for a walk and can still find fossils, and this precisely where we came up with the concept for ‘Adaptation’.
