Altone aka Yuki Takasaki, is a Japanese musician and DJ who joins the Default Position roster in 2018 with his intricately designed dub techno EP 'Sub Flux'.

Greatly inspired by 90s Detroit techno, Altone has performed at numerous venues in Japan, touring Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto as a member of a post punk, synth-led, new wave rock band. The experience led him to explore his own music, focusing on minimalism, eventually leading to continued experiments in tech house, deep house, ambient and dub techno.

Altone's music is described as 'a mechanical yet universal and natural experience, created with random noise and warm looped soundscapes that can swim through the deepest part of your consciousness'.

Drift Deeper have been quiet for a few months. Seems this year we can never catch up. We have been hard at work putting together our Slow Living Volume 2 compilation, which I am happy to say is nearly complete. We just had enough time to squeeze in one more release before the compilation. It is a 4 track EP from 4 artists, some names you may know but some you will not. At Drift Deeper we are always looking for new talented artists who we feel need a voice.

The EP title is a recent experience for me, the wordings stuck in my head so I thought it would make a good title for the EP. Ironic that they didn't disappear from my head. So thankyou to the person who told me these words, I hope they do not disappear for too long though.

The collective known as Dub Like Air has finished the second journey in their series. 

The idea behind DLA V2 is the same as V1 - we decided on a tempo and key, individually wrote a selection of loops and sounds, shared, then created tracks using only the set of shared sounds.

Default Position is a London/Berlin-based record label founded by Joseph S Joyce which specialises in emotive forms of electronic music. The label gets its name from a term that is widely used in psychology, referring to a person's natural tendency or reaction to something or someone. A person's default position is often based on deeply embedded core beliefs about themselves or the world around them, often originating from childhood. Many of us will have to challenge our default positions in life, especially if we've developed negative ones. In terms of creativity, however, we believe that the default position serves something of great value. We believe it represents an artist's fundamental frequency, a place of creative authenticity, devoid of external influences or material motive. When an artist's output comes from their default position they express their truth. Our aim is to help them deliver their message.
