Our first full length release is by longtime favourite of the label, Tibia. Surfacing is a deep dive into a world of rapid currents. Ambient techno are words that can only do so much to describe the unique painting Tibia brushes with colours lush and fine. Beginning with lilting, warped hip hop inspired beats pulsing under vocal murmurations submerged and unclear. Hypnotic chords and pads swell as we reach the surface, casting fluttering patterns of crisp percussion before floating to shore. Suitable for the home or the club, Tibia’s latest album, Surfacing is a testament to his ability and skill as both producer and storyteller.

Biography
Empirical as a hard sip spilling from a discharged battery. There is always a nihilistic fetish in these youngsters dealing with technology. Stefano Martino, aka R A S H, is never hiding this darkest side in his composition. His machinery becomes a ritual object within which his human state becomes an algorithmic begging of change making its appearance at warm 50 hertz complacency.

His sound exploration is elaborated through decadent, post-industrial soundscapes inscribing the full failure of a consumer society which noise becomes an evidence whilst its awareness is modelled, reworked within a dystopian hexavalent chromium taste, blended into the future. Uncannily grainy, definitely remote. Until he stumbles upon a retrofuture device. Namely, a mono synth.Owner of  AreaAudio for Infestazioni Soniche Festival / R A S H lab
