Listen to "AP2M7" by Nuboid taken from "Imago" LP out on OFF-SWITCH AUDIO

Bandcamp: https://offswitchaudio.bandcamp.com/album/imago-lp

Several years on from his debut album Nomad and after a series of sound-evolving self-releases, Off-Switch Audio are excited to announce the second full-length album from Nuboid. Spanning across a range of genres and tempos Imago LP brilliantly showcases a fully refined style from the UK based producer; a final metamorphosis of the Nuboid sound.
It Comes In Waves atmospherically sets the tone for the LP, introducing crisply saturated tape sonics and harmonically rich retro synths. Pads modulate into a crashing crescendo, teasing ripples of delayed breakbeats above a rumble of cinematic low frequencies and an ethereal accumulation of reverberation FX. This building bed of ambience perfectly makes space for the impactfully percussive beats of AP2M7. With dark moving melodies, sizzling smooth cymbals and subtle hits of bass synth filth, AP2M7 is an absolute weapon for any DJ’s dancefloor artillery.
Oppose The Force then switches things up with authentically old-school rave aesthetics; pitch shifting vox-chops and a slow steady breakbeat work-out to keep the energy moving at pace. In a similar fashion, OGs draws for the acid bass and the drum machine, chopping hardcore vocal slices among punchy and precise electronic percussion hits, all glued together with a tasteful serving of analogue crunch.
Next up, is the distorted four to the floor madness that is Celsius. This is a proper gritty techno stomper; guaranteed heavy hitting material heated up to the maximum degree.
After the eerie interlude of Black Dog, Ode2TS follows up with a dark and rhythmic roller driven by modular style bass pulsations. .5Sleep then returns to the realms of crunchy lo-fi house; a truly emotive musical exploration that, in true album style, morphs fittingly into an interlude...
After introducing the sound palette with epilogue(questionmark), everything evolves into pure jungle rave euphoria with Could It Be. Perfectly chopped and mangled breaks in an elegant and restrained manner, paired with hard hitting 808 subs and that certified soulful vox/pad/piano combo.
Repercussions then reduces the tempo an increment, drawing Imago LP to a close with reflective and chilled out early morning vibes. Skippy four to the floor beats carry playful samples and melodies with one final sprinkling of saturation and cassette-tape character. A great example of Nuboid’s minimal yet strongly stylistic approach showcased throughout the album.
With a beat-tape-like structure akin to his previous work, Imago LP takes a much more varied approach, combining flavours of acid, techno, house and jungle to create a very well rounded and listenable album project. A coherent flow of club bangers and zone out head nodders throughout.
