Taken from "Submersion - Entrainment EP (Greyscale)".  Out June 30th 2023. Buy here : https://scale-limited.bandcamp.com

Greyscale #10 is here for the masses! To make things even more exciting, the long awaited is a double vinyl edition! Submersion has been on many top deep and dub techno labels in the past 15 years such as Silent Season, Space of Variants, Milieu Music, Deep Electronics, diametric, Rohs! and more.
A landing at Greyscale makes complete sense for the quality Submersion is known for. 'Entrainment' is for those deep dub techno fans that like extended atmospheric tracks surrounded by a heavy ambience. 3 of the 4 sides have 1 track to its entire side making the fidelity of these top notch! 'Transversal, Planetary, Capsule' fills up side A with an amazing and gentle intro that has ominous clouds on the horizon. The beat is distance, while the nuances of the airspace is fully dedicated to submerging you deep within. A trulymagical and enveloping sound. The next track to uncover is 'Filter, Gradation, Centrifuge'.Imagine that the earth is a ever-evolving dub techno track and you were viewing or listening to it from the distance of the moon. This would be it! There is a tremendous distance that is created in this track where chords flow and move like clouds over large areas of distance.Sometimes, the best description is a visual one if it helps. Breathtaking! 'Stimulant,
Perspective, Sensory' starts the next piece of vinyl with another epic one. It morphs like a planet is being formed before your eyes. Basslines move like mountains while chords strike like distance thunder. The last side has 2 tracks sharing the side. 'Reflectance, Reverberant, Cortisol' and 'Predawn'. The first is a grandious ambient number that sounds heavenly while the last featured song is equally stunning as almost a reprise of a previous. Entrainment will be available on white 180-gram double vinyl as well as CD digipak and digital. These are all supersonic soundscapes to immerse yourself in! Masterpieces!

So...I take a deep breath now...because this is something so very special to me what I am able to introduce to you now...since a certain time a nice ongoing connection of music love has build to  Chris a.k.a. Noosa Soundsystem from Australia. And now he has built a set especially for MLD!! Can't believe that this is real now...he is such a talented producer and those who know about his releases find a very unique and deep sound in his tracks...also his fast developement is amazing and very inspiring for me...I'm curious about his process in future!
so here's  what Chris himself says about this special mix:
"Rather than opting to beat mix a dub techno set, I wanted to create something special for this guest mix - and in so doing - maybe share a deeper insight into the sonic aesthetic that informs the Noosa Sound System project. Taking a deep dive into my personal archives for this session, we navigate some pretty abstract long-form ambient territory in places. Whilst there is also some re workings of material from the Beyond the Sphere album that released last year on Greyscale. 
Normally some of these more experimental recordings might sit on the hard drive, as sample material or sound design references. However putting them together into a different narrative that wouldn't usually eventuate, has been a super interesting exercise leading to this exclusive set.
I hope you enjoy the session as much as I did, and if you listen carefully, you'll hear someone present during recording, loose it at one point as we start spinning a radio on the old 1200 Mk2. I left this in the final edit because it captures the fun to be had when we don't take our time in the studio too seriously! All that remains now is to express my thanks, much love and respect to Sai for the invite to MLD, and of course to you for listening - whoever you are - please don't be a stranger!

One love - Chris (Noosa Sound System)"

Noosa Sound System for MLD

https://scale-limited.bandcamp.com/album/fargazing-grscl43

Sephirot’s debut on Greyscale, Fargazing, is a stunning exploration of sound that gracefully balances synthetic textures with organic atmospheres. Across ten tracks, the UK-based artist produces a creative sound design, crafting an album rich in depth, spaciousness and emotional resonance.
The journey begins with 'Chúl', where a broken beat emerges from a dense static interference, gradually unveiling luminous chords and a clever rhythmic interplay. This introduction to the album immediately shows how it thrives on subtle evolution and intricate layering. 'Deep [SEM]', a dub techno gem, has a melodic beauty and progression to it. Its harmonious interplay of evolving melodies creates a lush, layered soundscape that feels like a serene paradise. 'FP/B6' leans into a techier groove with a tight beat and organic landscape, giving the track a natural vibrancy. 'Midnight, Our' is a standout, with its shimmering melodies and subliminal bassline revealing their full intent in the latter half. The track’s final moments become a breathtaking crescendo, leaving you wanting more. 'Holding Patter(n)' serves as a contemplative intermission, blending orchestral tones with dense delays before transitioning into a whimsical conclusion. It’s a perfectly placed pause, preparing the listener for the second half of the album. Tracks like 'Midsummer' and 'Ochred' embrace the genre’s dub roots, combining broken beats with airy, uplifting production. The latter, in particular, radiates positivity and hope with breathtaking chord stabs and a expansive energy. 'Ellipsoidal' deepens the immersion, constructing scenic depth and an enveloping sense of distance. The album closes on a dreamlike note with 'Shon', blending angelic tones and IDM-inspired rhythms. Its wistful conclusion feels like the end of an extraordinary journey.
Fargazing is a brilliant debut for Sephirot. Throughout this album, the artist consistently shows their ability to create emotionally moving dub techno. It’s a deeply rewarding listen that invites repeated exploration. The label’s dedication to releasing exceptional music from global talents continues to be a trademark for themselves.

The Frontier 016 - Armin Bender

When Scuba's Claustrophobia dropped back in April we couldn't get enough of it's dark, gritty, gloomy take on jet black techno, and we're still bumping it now. 

Imagine our excitement, then, when we found out that a tonne of our favourite producers were going to rework the entire thing. Audion! Tuff City Kids! Radio Slave! Loads more!

The result was this stunning LP that takes in everything from airy ambient house to demonic 5am churners. We're super stoked to be bringing it to you exclusively here on THUMP.

One year ago, Sodai burst onto the electronic soundscape with fearless River / Ghost from label boss Gardens of God. Renowned for delivering the highest quality with meticulously selected artists, the label has carved out a fresh sound and distinct style. To celebrate the first milestone, Gardens of God solidifies the integrity of the label with the profound Maple EP .

Subtle distorted keys pan the atmosphere in lead track Maple for an enticing start to the EP, before a dominating bass soon carries the track through layers of melodic synths. The sinister tones of Whistler are next and set to cause a serious stir on the dancefloor. Last up, Bek is a solid techno roller with a thundering bass, enhanced by an incredible richness in the haunting synths that echo throughout.

The third Realm Of Consciousness compilation on Tale Of Us’ Afterlife Recordings is the label’s most complete statement so far.

The four-vinyl opus opens with Tale Of Us’ now anthemic ‘Nova’, a high-impact and well-loved staple of their sets this year. Agents Of Time continue with the percussive rattle of ‘Paradigm’, before the first released collaboration between luminaries Recondite and Henrik Schwarz shines with understated melody.

Amongst Mind Against’s eerie masterpiece ‘Portal’ and impressive first appearances on Afterlife from Scuba (as SCB) and Steve Rachmad (as Sterac) are ethereal contributions from Fideles, Ovend and Øostil. UK techno veteran Edit Select channels the darker, hypnotic spirit of Afterlife with ‘Phase In’, setting up the sprawling, 14-minute epic from Luigi Tozzi and Antonio Ruscito.

To begin the compilation’s fourth disc, Konstantin Sibold & Kosme’s ‘Cyclone’ lifts the tone, leading into a more introspective sound from Hunter/Game on ‘Changing Weather’. Upcoming German talent Kevin De Vries follows with his infectious cut ‘Mágoa’ and Tone Depth ends the odyssey in mesmerising style with ‘Ibn Sina’.

The full spectrum of Tale Of Us’ Afterlife label is on display here, as they continue to push the envelope with a high-quality and diverse selection of artists.

Greyscale latest full length album and #12 for the label is coming from standout and familiar producer Gradient. Titled "Dub Harmonics", this is his 3rd album for Greyscale and when we asked about this threesome he replied with: "This is the last album in the trilogy. Or maybe it will not be a trilogy? Who knows..".
Gradient's attention to harmonics and the melodics of dub techno shows how the genre can work so well with the roots of house music. He has filled this album with breezy and addictive hooks to get lost in while the rhythm's work equally well for any deep, hypnotic dance floor. And while many releases in this genre fail with too much attention to the individual sounds, this one succeeds with its focus on character and emotion. An album that is as much for house music lovers as it is for dub techno ones. One of the brightest moments in this genre. If you get one dub techno release this year, this is the one to have! Epic tracks throughout!!!
