“Wakeful” is the debut album by  @NicolasHaquin via  @Outtallectuals  label, featuring +20 collaborating musicians. Composed, refined, & meticulously crafted over 2 years, ‘Wakeful’ is a culmination of deeply personal emotions as they intertwine with the expression of collaborating artists who bring their instrumental, production or vocal expertise to the experience. 

The album explores the liminal states between wistful & cheerful, defeated & optimistic, focused & wandering, & isolated & connected. Sonically, the album’s genres span an eclectic yet continuous thread along organic downtempo, future garage, deep dubstep, lo-fi & jazzhop, nature-inspired ambient, IDM & world music. 

The album’s darker songs, namely the stomping High Dude collaboration, ‘Starless’, the psychedelia of ‘Smoke And Mirrors’ with Maynix & Chalky, & Middle Eastern experimental garage of ‘Dark Skis’ with Three Oscillators & Adam Maalouf, are balanced with more introspectively neutral tones of ‘Daydream’ with IOM, & onto the more triumphant & resolving tones of ‘Sequence’, ‘Through the Trap Door’ & ‘Glow’.

________________________________________________________________________
Here is an amazing album review written by Jordan Reece.
Reverberant tribal chants and nuanced environmental aromatics. Powerfully aligning towards a humanized pulse. Hazy clouds cover the skies and the emotive cries of eagles soaring through the chill mist. The eventual revelation of listener’s spirit animal(s). A thunderous war drum rally-call to all the head nodders out there. Eyes down and devices stowed during takeoff and landing please. Palpably obtuse angles strike in disjointed yet seamless way in this deep and dark salute to the rootsy sounds of dubstep and garage. Silky smooth and breathtaking aquatronica. Twinkling closed eye visuals and other bass induced episodic side effects. As though you heard someone called your name in Shpongolese but you’re lost in the crowd and the drugs just kicked in. Swimming in a beautiful ocean of faceless reflections. Rimshots that would make even your mother cry out. Dance-floor turns to lava from the molten ferocity of this heater. The seismic rumblings at the inner core of an unknown entity. The dim glow of the ferryman’s lantern swaying as the listener crosses over the threshold. The hooded dub warrior walks the lonely path to enlightenment. These are his stories. These are his bass chops. A slow leak becomes a swift river. Bass-lines flow like the first rains, connecting pools of critically spun out beats to once again journey upstream to their ancestral breeding grounds. Shameless display of finely cut neural bass work for all to witness. Clearly a law is being broken
somewhere.

So Close - Single

So Close

@Hullabalo0

Hullabalo0’s catalog is the product of a consistent, dedicated passion within the nebula of low end sound design and groove theory. After nearly a year of audio experiments and an powerful growth in compositional scope, he’s prepped to unveil the Habaneuro LP, with The Rust being given the opportunity to premiere the album’s namesake track.

“Habaneuro” is exactly as it’s name suggests; brazen, lush, and undeniably spicy. The outer edges of the track begin and end with vibrant, meandering jazz breaks, giving the track a life and soul beyond just rugged synthesis and brackish textures. Sandwiched between the smoothness is a vicious breakdown wielding stereoptic bass and fragmented glitches, merging tones and waveforms into an electronic potpourri of force and firepower. “Habaneuro” is the torch that lights the albums pyre, and it's more than just a taste of what’s soon to come from the mad machinations of Hullabalo0.

A little something I made for some of my favorite artists of all time.
