Are you ready for a ceremonial journey led by a sonic alchemist, whose musical vessel transforms the raw energy of hard techno into a transcendent experience? If not, then you better prepare, because Sara Landry has just dropped her highly-anticipated debut album –‘Spiritual Driveby’,
Since her debut Boiler Room set in 2023 that amassed over 6 million views which remains the 3rd highest streamed Boiler Room Set of the last 2 years, and her sold out All Night Long tour, Sara Landry, also known as the ‘’High Priestess of Hard Techno’’, has made herself present at some of the most prestigious stages around the world. Claiming the title as the world’s biggest techno ticket seller, her commanding stage presence and raw power of sound has not only blessed the audiences of Creamfields, Monegros, Kappa Futur, EDC Las Vegas and Timewarp Brazil, but also etched her name in history as the first techno artist to play at the Tomorrowland Mainstage.
Today, on October 4th, the time has finally come for the irrefutable force who has captivated a global obsession, to release her debut album ‘Spiritual Driveby’. An album that Sara Landry isn’t just asking you to listen to– she demands you to participate, bring your own energy and to release it to the frequencies that vibrate around you:
“This sonic offering was motivated and inspired by the notion that none of us are alone because we are all energetically linked. Everything we do is interwoven and collaborative, whether we realize it or not. Every musical experience we’ve ever had, every show we’ve been to, every euphoric moment that echoes across time has been a collaborative experience and a stacking of energies. The experiences themselves only manifest just so because of the energetic contributions of every single individual that is present. Similarly, these parties are only what they are because of the energy everyone brings and the frequency we ascend to when we vibrate together ’’, Sara says.
‘Spiritual Driveby’, the 12-track masterpiece is a vibrant testament to the power of collective energy, where the essence of collaboration is woven deeply into the fabric of the music, making it just as crucial as the sounds themselves. Each track was produced alongside Sara Landry’s friends and industry counterparts such as Mike Dean, Nico Moreno, Shlomo, Aaron Hibell, LEDZDINA, Alex Farell and even her personal hypnotist – Restorative Hypnosis whose mesmerizing vocals can be heard on the albums prelude.
“I want to extend a massive thank you to the artists I collaborated with on this body of work. You are all so talented and I’m grateful we could create together. These sessions with you over the last 4 months have made me fall back in love with producing after 15 long months of writer’s block, and for that I am eternally grateful. Most importantly: thank you to you, the listeners, for it is only with your support that I am able to live this wonderful, creative life and have the privilege of spending all my time creating and playing this music for you. This journey has been the greatest joy of my life so far’’, Sara says.
Sara Landry, the tastemaker and provocateur who is also the founder of the label HEKATE (named after the Greek Goddess of witchcraft and wild places), has without a doubt, earned her cult-like following that consist of 1 million monthly listeners on Spotify and has solidified her positioning as Beatport’s no.1 best-selling female producer in the genre.
Pushing what has long been considered subversive into popular culture, Sara Landry has cemented herself as one of the most in-demand names in music. Her ability to balance rebellious experimentation with ancient power, almost makes one wonder if she knows something that we don’t. After all, it can’t be a coincidence that Sara Landry chose to release her debut album, the day after the beginning of an important time for transformation and inner power, can it? Not if astrologers get to have say about it, at least.
On that note, get ready to be immersed by Sara Landry’s ‘Spiritual Driveby’, and the collective journey that captures the essence of communal chaos while embracing the solace within the intensity of high BPMs.
