Translation Recordings is proud to unveil The Solstice EP featuring the unparalleled musical talent of UK veteran producer Theory.  In this the catalogue's second EP, enter a journey across a unique spectrum of tracks showcasing Theory's dabbling with magic in multiple genres.  The EP begins with "Babylon Dem."  Immerse yourself in a dub anthem half-step tune where old school ragga vibes intermingle with heavystep drums and haunting synth FX preparing you with a bit of suspense for the unexpected drop of the EP's second track, "Weirdos."  This tune is itself a reminiscent of a dream sequence carrying an ominous vibe with low-end rumbles, spliced drum edits, eerie reverberating brass and hard hitting rave stabs.  The climax of the journey lies in "Dirty Tricks," a thundering amen thrasher boasting old school dnb ammunition with hair-raising percussion sampling an unrelenting knock on the door.  Still the ominous mood relents with drum edits and FX of the electro-acoustic tastes, using sounds familiar to the bass-binger's ears only in an entirely unique and smashing arrangement, both suspenseful and vibey.  The fourth track entitled, "Rain On Me" encompasses Theory's truly holistic sound providing a cool and sexy, soothing and uplifting denouement.  Theory weaves a jazzy melodic masterpiece with sensual vocals and saxophone; a peaceful ending to the Solstice EP, dedicated to and representative of an adventure on the longest day of the year.  The ending to such an adventure never sounded sweeter.

Theory - Rain On Me

.Drumglistix!  Love all forms of drum and bass & jungle, though I lean more toward amen sounds.   my own pieces have ended up trappish and glitchy, but my heartbeat is a processed amen, for sure
