Gradient kicks off with a four-track release from Jamaica Suk and remixer Cassegrain. Beyond Horizon builds into a flurry of whirring metallic noises and mind-massaging squelches, with throbbing bass tones permeating the disorientating wall of sound. Art vs War brings drunken bassline funk, with warped synth growls and dusty percussion punctuating.
Around The Vines is a less thumping affair, but its incessant rapid- fire synth arpeggios are equally hypnotic, paired with ticking percussive rhythms and pulsing sub bass. Cassegrain’s remix of Around The Vines underpins the aforementioned synth refrain with a thundering tribal tom rhythm and builds the intensity further through a metallic military snare roll.

Brooklyn-born and Berlin-based, Dustmite's artistic output is propelled by cosmic curiosity. Navigating quantum microgroove techno, hypnotic breaks and iatric old school jungle, the DJ is driven by discovery—undergoing an astute excavation of sound and the scenes that surround it.

As a drummer, Dustmite internalised the language of rhythm early in life, but his coming-of-age came when mp3 download culture drove him to the depths of the UK underground. Launching his career in Los Angeles, Dustmite honed his expansive sonic intellect through avid immersion in scenes spanning New York, Seattle, and Minneapolis.

Since relocating to Berlin in 2018, the artist’s bookings have broadened to include renowned institutions like RSO and Tresor. His undulating Eternal Travel EP
serves as the ninth genre-defying release on Dustmite’s self-established Supervoid imprint—another case in point of irrevocable versatility.
