Palette Recordings
37 label tracks the Ninja keeps in rotation, and the artists behind them.
Palette Recordings refuses to stay in one lane, threading techno, electro, synth-pop and progressive house alongside splinters of dream pop and hands up. With John Tejada, Silent Servant and Nosaj Thing anchoring the electronic flank while Optometry, March Adstrum and Diamond Day stretch into hazier territory, the aesthetic is deliberately diffuse yet disciplined.
An 8.4 average across 36 tracks suggests deep trust in the label’s curatorial instincts, even when the sonic palette veers from warehouse rigour to bedroom melancholia. It sits somewhere between a techno outpost and an electronic catch-all for the adventurous, trading cohesion for boldness and rarely misfiring.
