Idioteque - Subtle Radio Guest Mix - 12/04/23

Following the release of his widely received debut EP, Keeping You Alive = Killing Me More, Idioteque returns with his latest single, the mysterious "Offering". Another dark voyage into the genre of triphop, the track features lyrics and vocals by emerging US artist Swan Diver, who released his own debut single earlier this year. Lending his unique voice and mystical writing ideas to Idioteque's precise production techniques, the collaboration results in a haunting struggle between light and dark.

With production of the track well under way, Idioteque turned to artist Jesse Ajilore (@jesseajilore) to create visuals. Taking inspiration from the complexity and darkness of the sound, Ajilore described his process and what he took from the track as trying to depict metamorphosis "but at the point of transformation".

"Like a caterpillar becoming a butterfly, except as humans going through that metaphorically there isn't a set thing that we become when we leave our cocoon, because we can make a choice. That's what the two paths [in the artwork] represent".

When Swan Diver joined the project, taking early demos and the already-complete artwork into account, he wrote the spiralling lyrics, which can be found below. Speaking on the process he equated it more to "resisting inevitable change, and the attachments we feel to our own pain".

Speaking on the process Idioteque says: 
"As time has passed I feel like I’m getting closer to making the music I want to create. Carving out my own sound, seeing more of my core influences come through, and feeling the most creatively fulfilled I’ve ever felt. Now using my own guitar work and organic methods of recording far more, I think it’s so important to keep feeling stimulated and evolve, and not just make the same thing over and over again."

Idioteque's previous triphop releases have gained attention worldwide, with singles "Richie Aprile" and "Wrong Turns in Odyssey" in particular being featured on playlists by Spotify Editorial, Empireofamelia, Oppositemarco, All India Radio, JazzHopCafe, Wanderlust (IT) among others.

"Offering" is the first single from a new EP that is in the works, as the London-based artist also plans to bring together both bodies of work in a live showcase feasturing many of his collaborators later in the year. Watch this space.

Offering

Idioteque - Offering (feat. Swan Diver)

Idioteque returns to the Dubstep / 140 realm after some time away, with his thought provoking, forward thinking "Blueprints" EP on LX One's Vantage Records, a piece of music that has been meticulously worked on for the past two years; each song having their own identity, whilst gelling together to form one cohesive body. Idioteque's mentality is to always push the envelope and reach new territories within his music, and has certainly achieved this with "Blueprints"

This EP has been supported by many respected artists within the scene including: Breakfake, Enigma Dubz, J.Sparrow, Joe Nice, LX ONE, Neffa-T, N-Type, Ternion Sound, Sicaria, Mia Koden, and Sumgii to name a few; with regular plays on respected stations such as Dekmantel’s podcast series, Ilian Tape, Rinse, SWU and Subtle FM, along with track support in locations such as Fabric (UK), Motion (UK), The Wire (UK), The Black Box (US), Boomtown (UK), Infrasound (US) and Outlook (HR).

Following the release of his latest single, Offering (feat. Swan Diver), Idioteque returns. Doubling up with “Brand New Page, an introspective trip-hop / UK rap hybrid. The track features lyrics and vocals by Idioteque himself and promising UK artist Reptile B, who’s obtained an illustrious output as of recent. This song contains an amalgamation of influences that creates the perfect crossover, all the while a strong concept being at the heart, depicting the harsh realities of maturing from the innocence of adolescence to adulthood.


With production well in motion, Idioteque once again turned to artist Jesse Ajilore (@jesseajilore) to create the artwork. Taking inspiration primarily from the lyrical themes along with the former’s vision.


When Reptile B aligned with the project, while he took Idioteque’s message into strong consideration, Reptile B succeeds in delivering his own perspective and experiences in an unfiltered, to the core fashion.

Speaking on the process Reptile B states:

“The poetic choruses of Idioteque stirred up memories from my childhood, memories that were fragmented and confusing, ones I had long repressed. This is the first song I’ve written in a long time that details absolute truths that put my mental health on display. I had to strip back my animated rap persona and write from the heart of the person that took up music to escape the intricacies of my jaded day to day life. It was worth it.”


Speaking on the process Idioteque reflects:

“This song sprouted from a poem I had recently written, which subsequently became the central chorus of the track. Amidst a turbulent few years that impacted us all, I engaged in a contemplation regarding the gradual erosion of childhood’s inquisitiveness and purity, juxtaposed with the complex evolution into adulthood. It felt like a retrospective conversation with one’s younger, more innocent self.I drew parallels between the life-cycle of humans and trees, being transformed into paper; marked by the challenges that we encounter in our existence, and how these experiences shape us.

My foremost aspiration was to channel the thematic essence of this work directly to the listener, a goal I believe we collectively attained. I wish to express my deep gratitude to Reptile B and Jesse Ajilore for their invaluable contributions.”


Idioteque's recent output has gained attention worldwide, with singles "Richie Aprile" and "Wrong Turns in Odyssey" in particular being featured on playlists by Spotify Editorial, Empireofamelia, Oppositemarco, JazzHopCafe, All India Radio, Wanderlust (IT) among others.

Been a little quiet on the release front this year, so thought I'd upload a recent tune of mine as a free dl.

Vendetta serves as a little taster of what's to come in the near future, been really enjoying producing around the 140BPM realm and I can't wait to show you guys more of what I've been working on / what has been planned.

Thankyou to those who keep on supporting! 

Feedback on this one has been wicked, Hope you guys enjoy.
