Émergeant de la florissante scène Strasbourgeoise, Beatrice M. débarque sur Egregore Collective avec son dubstep technoïde comme iel le décrit si bien.

Tout juste après une excellente sortie sur Krakzh et au milieu d’une année qui l’a vu.e lancer son label Bait et être invité.e sur pléthore de line-ups dans tous les coins de la France, Beatrice rejoint le roster avec quatre morceaux délicieusement vaporeux à la production méticuleuseme, explorant les hybridations hypnotiques entre techno et dubstep, sans pour autant se cantonner au fameux 140 bpm.

Et pour une expérience encore plus méditative, Maquis Son Sistèm vous emmène dans le vortex avec un remix tortueux de 9 minutes d’un des titres.


🇬🇧

Emerging from the flourishing Strabourg scene, Beatrice M. is up next on Egregore Collective, providing us with their now trademark hypnotic, techno infused dubstep beats.

Hot off the heels of a splendid release on Krakzh and it the midst of a year that saw them take the french underground scene by storm, launching their label Bait and playing in every corner of France, Beatrice joins the roster with 4 deliciously vaporous, meticulously crafted tracks bridging the gap between techno and dubstep, not sticking to the sempiternal 140 bpm and pushing the spectrum in all directions.

And for more bass meditation, Toulouse’s Maquis Son Sistèm will be taking you down the rabbit hole for a 9 minute brain-twisting remix of one of the tunes.

PREMIERE: Carré - Crawler [Woozy]

This is a Wip version of a track that will be included in the new album "Born on Earth, Raised on Earth." I created a glitchy drum beat based on an electronic bass.

Try to keep up. This one's for the hyperactive mind. Evolving into something different every few bars, you'll need to pay attention.

One of the first tracks I ever made and - still to this day - one of the best I've ever made.

Om Unit steps into 2020 with ‘Submerged’, a six-track EP comprised of varied uptempo grooves, which in his own way defy categorisation once again. The EP draws influence from various aspects of the techno landscape as much as borrowing from tropes of previous work including his trademark use of space, rhythmic tension and sub-heavy hypnotic bass melodies. A record that showcases further diversity and sonic innovation within the realm of what has been coined ‘160’, a loose term to describe a movement which he himself has helped to pioneer since the early 2010’s.

Submerged opens with the electro-inspired ‘Patterning’, which takes as much influence from Detroit as from the rhythmic structure of jungle and broken beat, drawing a parallel between these forms in a similar fashion to artists such as deep blue or even 4 hero might have in the 90’s but with an upfront broken structure that might even be described as ‘retro-futurist’ in it’s electro sensibilities. ‘A Groove’ comes next leaning fully into a 4 x 4 foundation, with classic Juke-style construction, paying respect to modern funk in the process with it’s classic Roland pads and sun-drenched synth lead line whilst borrowing a jungle break here and there not in a dissimilar fashion to his work as ‘Philip D Kick’. Side A closes with ‘Vertigo’ which takes us in to a minimal eyes-down realm with a hypnotic vocal sample and a half-stepping percussive structure all supported by a seriously low sub-rhythm. Not one for the feint-hearted selector. Side B opens with ‘Runes’ which invokes a sense of nostalgia back to his work on ‘threads’ with gently rolling percussion and bass lines that support a synth landscape that invoke the a sense of the other-worldly dance-floor. Next up it’s ‘Long Summer’ a grounded and percussive Jazzy workout not that dissimilar to tracks from 2019’s ‘Violet’ EP, taking influence from Bukem’s classic ambient jungle of the 90’s but with his own unmistakable half-stepping ‘slow-fast’ groove. The record closes with ‘Peninsula’ which again whilst not being dissimilar to the work of ‘Violet’ this time takes the 160 realm into to a slow-mo 4/4 groove heavily inspired by the masters of dub techno, backed up with a classic syncopated breakbeat in classic Om Unit style.

This EP is another chapter in Om Unit’s work around the 160bpm realm, taking complete ownership of his process and leaning away from the confines of genre once again, expressing ideas that whilst lean heavily into known places make connections that some might not at first easily perceive.
