The Leap is more than just a shot in the dark. It’s the culmination of endless days and nights, taming sequencers, synthesizers and other soundmachines—by both its members, Tripeo and Doka. Based in Nijmegen, arguably one of Holland’s most interesting electronic music hubs, each has separately made waves in international waters. Tripeo with his mesmerizingly fierce take on atmospheric techno, and Doka with an equally hypnotizing and relentless musical approach.

The launch of their eponymous label marks the next milestone on their journey. Each release will have a theme based on an environmental or social subject, as climate change and growing inequality in the world is of growing concern to them and music gives an amazing opportunity to connect people worldwide. The idea is not to shy away from the elephants in the room, but to address them in a constructive manner. In that spirit half of the proceeds of each release will be donated to a cause directly linked to the theme of the release.

The first release is as song titles suggest about Plastic. An effective and cheap fabric with many useful purposes, but unfortunately it has become a huge burden on the environment which is taking it’s toll in a dramatic way. Half of the proceeds of this release will go to the Plastic Soup Foundation (link: www.plasticsoupfoundation.org).

The releases on The Leap label will be digital only to keep our carbon footprint at a minimum. If we do decide to do a vinyl release, we will make sure to make it climate positive and invest in regenerative projects.
