https://soundcloud.com/priori-ties Priori's latest single, "Pareidolia," is out today on all digital platforms. It serves as a preview of his upcoming EP by the same name on Midgar in mid-April, coinciding with the label's 9th anniversary. The title is inspired by the phenomenon of recognizing familiar patterns in random objects, which Priori artfully incorporates into his sound design. Imagine anthropomorphic water droplets ascending to a higher plane of existence.

Written and produced by Francis Latreille
Mastering by Anne Taegert at D&M Berlin

Deep within the humdrum of the freeway buzz and eternal traffic of dystopian Los Angeles, there exists an unstoppable sonic gathering of minds, determined to spread a gospel believing that higher BPMs are not necessarily synonymous with harsh escapist mentalities and homogenous vibes. Lately however, as the belief system and community members have musically evolved, there has been some debate about the viability and true existence of this mantra. Is “Fast Not Hard” a sustainable ethos, guiding us towards the ultimate truth?

Just as the issue began to climax, seemingly out of nowhere, a helicopter emerged, containing a capsule from the future (or possibly aliens). Within this capsule was physical, musical, fundamental proof of the durability of their belief system – a bible of sorts, with all the thoughts and debates and beliefs and ideals of the group members mechanically infused into a shiny black disc of three original musical offerings. Upon digesting the capsule’s creed, the group accepted the music as scripture, and coined it “Soft Fascination,” – an emotional reflection of their fast-not-hard form of fundamentalism – and named group member Carré as their first chosen matriarch.

Sub Basics lands on Osmura with the 'Phase Drift' EP, the label's second release, following a 2024 V/A featuring Caldera, Bartoli, Atomic Moog, Solma, Birgan, and Shjva. The ‘Phase Drift’ EP opens with ‘Colour’, a high-tempo, percussive, bass-heavy cut blends hypnotic echoing synths with soft, mellow syncopated pads. Up next, ‘Scope’ works a tumbling high bpm percussion over an aquatic undercurrent. On the flip, ‘Splinter’, Sub Basics deftly builds melodies and brings punchy, moody textures to the fore. Finally, the ‘Phase Drift’ EP wraps up with ‘Nt’, a deep, expansive soundscape marked by a chugging groove and gritty industrial reverb.

London-based Sub Basics producer, DJ and Temple Of Sound founder has accumulated support from Ben UFO, Laurent Garnier, Roman Flügal, Kia, Lena Willikens, Tasha and Foundation Audio. Sub Basics’ discography extends to labels such as Modern Hypnosis, Infernal Sounds and Bait, which featured in Mixmag’s 2024 best tracks of the year roundup. The ‘Phase Drift’ EP perfectly encapsulates a unique genre-defying approach to production from an artist on a spiralling upward trajectory. Sub Basics arrives on Osmura, an imprint representing London’s hypnotic dubby auditory landscape.
