Nicolas Barnes’ Glory Shadow EP, the 140th release in the Mood Series, delivers a masterful blend of deep, heady textures and precise production. Across five tracks, Barnes crafts a blend that both captures and challenges the listener with its intricate rhythms and atmospheric layers.
The opening track, 'Fiber Square Ground', immediately drops you into an expansive atmosphere before a killer rhythm emerges. The addictive groove keeps the track grounded while chords swell and fade in a way that feels like a slow-motion sunrise. It’s an impressive opener that primes you for the emotional depth to follow. Next, 'Asked Question' ups the intensity with its airy, layered production. The chords are flighty, giving a sense of soaring through space. There’s an undeniable feeling of motion here, like shooting through the stratosphere—a perfect transition that sets up 'Glory Shadow'. This title track stands as the deepest offering on the EP. It’s hypnotic, drawing listeners into its gravitational pull with its minimal yet mesmerising textures. 'ReAsamble' is one of our favourites with a breathtaking and emotional melody. The chords ring out like shooting stars, creating a moment of reflection before the final track, 'Upset For Nothing'. This track is the calm after the storm, with an effortless groove.. Its flowing nature provides a satisfying conclusion, bringing balance to an EP that feels equally meditative and dynamic.
Overall, Glory Shadow is an exploration into depth, groove and emotion, with Barnes’ signature production that is as challenging as it is rewarding.

Get it here

The casino, tucked away in an old freight terminal, had no name on the facade. Locals simply called it “The Hum” — a place where you could lose your money, and maybe even your mind. The air was thick with tobacco smoke and cheap perfume, and the ceiling sank into a pulsing dim light.

Spacelunch passed a row of slot machines, where regulars pressed the buttons like condemned souls, and stopped at the roulette table. Fraudlin, a scrawny gambling addict with a blank expression, was sucking the last puff out of a cigarette butt as if no one else existed. Suddenly, a figure in a long coat appeared beside him.

— You only show up when things get tough.
— Fair. Today I need your ears.
— Heard about Cat. Word is, the bracelet has changed hands — more than once. And not just the bracelet. Some data on your whereabouts, too.
— Any idea who’s behind it?

Fraudlin flicked the ash, watching the roulette pill slide into a black slot.
— Rumour has it the trail runs through the old customs department. A lot of middlemen down there are working under the Corporation’s wing. Too neat to be a coincidence.
— You think Cat set me up?
— Sometimes it’s easier to blame the closest one than to admit you got outplayed.

Silence fell, full of second-guesses and afterthoughts. Spacelunch reached into his coat and tossed a credit chip onto the pile of chips.

— Let me know if anything new comes up.
— Don’t worry. The Hum hears everything. Keep my channel open.
