Eshach Launches Karakol With Debut EP Ada
A new label always says something about intent, and Karakol opens its catalog with Ada, the debut EP from producer and composer Eshach. Released today on February 6, 2026, the four-track project positions Eshach inside the deep electro lane while leaning heavily into cinematic structure and melodic control. This feels like a deliberate first move rather than a trial run, and that confidence shows in how the EP unfolds.
Eshach has spent years refining his craft behind the scenes, including close collaboration with Eitan Reiter, and that background in composition shapes the pacing here. You can hear a producer who understands narrative arcs, not just drops, and that approach gives Ada a sense of cohesion across its different stylistic turns.
A Debut Built on Atmosphere and Movement
The EP opens with “Intro (Bingin),” an ambient piece that sets the tone through restraint. It establishes space first, then emotion, letting textures stretch before rhythm takes over. Instead of rushing toward the dancefloor, it builds anticipation, which makes the transition into the title track feel earned.
“Ada” brings the groove forward with a rolling bassline and subtle rhythmic shifts that keep the track moving without forcing momentum. It sits comfortably inside deep house territory while maintaining the electro edge suggested by the EP’s genre tag. There is a hypnotic quality to the structure, and it rewards repeat listens because small details reveal themselves gradually rather than all at once.
“Am I Here” pivots toward Afro house influence, introducing percussive layers and flute lines that give the track a warmer tone. The rhythm remains controlled, and the melodic elements sit cleanly in the mix, which keeps the track club-ready without losing its organic character. Closing cut “Piantito” leans into melodic house, built around a central theme that unfolds steadily and carries emotional weight without becoming overly sentimental.
Club Function Meets Compositional Depth
What makes Ada work is its balance. Each track serves a different purpose, yet they feel connected through tone and pacing. That cohesion likely comes from Eshach’s work in soundtrack composition, where storytelling through sound is the main objective. His experience creating award-winning scores for animations and short films translates here into arrangements that feel structured rather than loop-based.
Live performance also informs the EP’s construction. Eshach has tested his ideas in club environments, and you can hear how the tracks are designed to evolve over time instead of peaking too quickly. They breathe, then tighten, then open again, which keeps DJs with room to blend while maintaining listener engagement.
For a debut release and a label launch at the same time, Ada reads as a measured introduction. It does not overextend stylistically, and it does not dilute its direction. Instead, it establishes a clear sonic identity built on groove, melody, and compositional control. If this EP signals the path forward for both Eshach and Karakol, it suggests a catalog that will prioritize depth and structure over quick impact.
