FRAMED028 – Nicolas Barnes “No but Still”

Framed Realities returns with a deep and hypnotic statement of modern dub techno.
The title track “No but Still” is pure club energy—lush dub chords, subtle percussion, and haunting female vocals that glide effortlessly through the mix.

On remix duties, Nicolas Duvoisin (Fantastic Friends) strips it down to a sleek, minimal club cut driven by tight grooves and precise breaks.
“I’m If You” carries Barnes’ unmistakable dub signature, pushing forward with that infectious groove he’s known for, while Christian Schiemann delivers a powerful rework built around a booming bassline and airy dub chords—crafted for the early morning dance floor.

The EP closes with “Cooling Framed,” a fresh blend of house warmth and classic dub textures, and “Tire Up,” a slow-burning groover that wraps the release in style.

A quintessential Framed Realities record: timeless dub aesthetics, minimal finesse, and undeniable club appeal.
