After his notable debut on Submersive's VA Osmotic Particles in 2021, Toki Fuko makes a captivating return with his first solo release on the label. 'Hues of Movement' comprises three original tracks and two remixes by Anthony Linell and Artefakt, embodying Submersive's ethos of a deep, hypnotic journey into organic yet dancefloor-ready Techno.

In the three original tracks, Toki Fuko once again mesmerizes with his evolving soundscapes. Electrical pulses are enhanced with expansive reverbs and woven into groovy drum sequences. The tracks gradually evolve, reminiscent of a drop of ink dispersing in water, inviting listeners to immerse themselves in the sound and lose control as they become one with the music.

Anthony Linell, who performed at Submersive’s inaugural party in Paris in 2017, offers a Train remix that seamlessly bridges his signature style with Toki Fuko's sound. The track emerges like a living entity, combining dub-influenced meditative atmospheres with ecstatic elements, growing into a full-length auditory experience.

Artefakt rounds off the release with their 'Warble' remix, taking listeners into depths where light cannot penetrate. The Dutch duo presents a darker take, subtly manipulating elements and maintaining high tension, keeping the end of this sonic adventure tantalizingly out of sight.

Accompanying the EP is artwork by Swiss-Moroccan artist Zineb Mezzour, offering a fresh interpretation of the concepts of surface and water that Submersive explores in each release. Known for her intricate work on paper and ceramics that evoke a microscopic, organic, and spiritual world, Zineb has performed a unique visual for this vinyl. She began by drawing invisible shapes in water, then brought them to life by adding ink that transformed into unpredictable fractal shapes. This artistic process was captured to create both the cover and the video teaser for the EP.

Release date: March 11
Format: Vinyl, Digital

Techno for underwater raves.

Founded in 2017 by @bevelgear, Submersive is a statement against the pulsating, hectic trend of hyperactive beats, carving out a space for a progressive, organic yet dancefloor Techno sets to the rhythm, inertia and power of nature herself.

Like a deep dive in the sea, Submersive’s music is enigmatic, dark at times, yet teeming with life. Through its label, podcast and events, it embraces the mystical, creating waves of ambient sounds, syncopated rhythms, and transcendent melodies that merge into a coherent, mesmerizing narrative. 

Submersive is not just a label; it is a call to immersion. It's an invitation to dive beneath the surface, to become lost in a dreamscape of sound that's as enigmatic as it is enchanting, and live those precious moments where every beat becomes a deeply personal echo in your heart.
