HIDD3N HAND’s album is a striking debut that finds its power in duality. Rooted in the rhythmic DNA of UK Garage while drenched in the expansive atmospheres of Wave, the album feels both grounded and dreamlike, equally suited for the dancefloor and late-night headphone sessions.

The UKG influence shows up in the shuffling percussion, swung snares, and basslines that give the record its momentum. But rather than relying on nostalgia, HIDD3N HAND stretches those grooves into widescreen landscapes — pads hang heavy in reverb, ghostly vocal fragments drift in and out, melodies bend and fracture. The result is a sound that pushes Garage forward rather than looking back.

Two tracks highlight this fusion best. “Middle of Night” is a masterclass in groove, its crisp percussion and vaporous synths creating the sensation of moving through a city after dark, carried by rhythm but suspended in atmosphere. By contrast, “Call Me” is the album’s emotional centerpiece — stripped back, spacious, and anchored by a haunting vocal motif that feels more like a memory than a lyric. Where one track moves your body, the other stills you, leaving you in reflection.

Across the tracklist, HIDD3N HAND shows remarkable restraint and vision. It’s not maximalist club music, nor is it purely ambient introspection. Instead, it thrives in the liminal space between. In doing so, HIDD3N HAND delivers a record that honors the past, resonates in the present, and gestures toward the future of electronic music.

Press release:

I, always, found relief
But never could be certain
What would be behind the curtain
That was next along the path

I stopped doing the math
I ceased with all the counting
And found Life an endless fountain 
And that God had meant no wrath

All the things the Heart could see
That were not evident to me
Sat there staring all the time
Though, I was blinded by my sight
Until my roller coaster mind
Became a joke to me

Now, I'm laughing on the beach
Learning to be free
The seagulls circle me, in jest
The ocean laughs along with me.

Fear of Things That Never Happen

Blanche I [XYZ012]
Release Date : 1.3.20
Purchase : www.beatport.com/release/blanche-i/2800627

Label XYZ’s first compilation comes in the form of Blanche - an annual series focused on collecting unique, innovative, and burgeoning artists, and shining a refreshed light on their art in the early days of the new year. From groovy to melodic, percussive to ethereal, Blanche represents the beginning of our explorations into 2020’s musical landscape. With newcomers and label favorites alike, the seven track release continues to harvest XYZ’s creative direction as an artist-first label, purveying talented producers with an insightful story to tell.

Another duo epitomizes the Blanche project as only a Montreal-bred act could. Hicky & Kalo return to XYZ for the second time in just a few months. After their sultry Rayo de Luz was warmly applauded by the XYZ faithful, we are thrilled to have them back to start the new year. The duo has been developing their musical repore since age 14, and the seasoned friendship bears fruit with Amazone. A genius arrangement creates a juggle between driving peaks and ethereal valleys, with a rhythmic percussion providing balance throughout. Progressive kicks are at the forefront of the Hicky & Kalo sound, with top of the line quality coming through yet again.

'An artist who believes in "carefully crafted and visualised music" to "express a story", Ivars Tillicks has been at the vanguard of the progressive house scene for well over five years with his Subconscious Tales soubriquet. Originally making his EP debut on the Suffused Music imprint in 2014, the Latvian artist has gone on to release regularly on the imprint. With almost a double century of production credits to his name, Subconscious Tales has seen his music signed to a plethora of high-profile imprints that include Balkan Connection, Lowbit and John 00 Fleming's JOOF.

A regular on Proton's labels, a debut for Particles saw the three-track "Twisted" EP released in June 2017, while a debut original EP for Proton Music saw the twin-track "Magnectares" EP arrive some two years later in July 2019. Remixes saw James Monro and Kasper Koman extend the range of the original EP while Subconscious Tales himself has been responsible for standout remixes of David Calo in late 2017 and Soulwerk's "Funchal" in mid-2020.

Now returning, "Dharma" is a high-energy offering that bristles with dynamic range as a fast-paced percussive top line and driving beat provide the perfect framework for muted and filtered chords to juxtapose themselves delicately against the rhythmic backdrop. Building in energy, a seismic sub-bassline rumbles across proceedings while a chorus of effects adds depth. A glorious array of melodic phrases reveal themselves at the mid-point before rhythmic dynamism hits its stride once more in the third movement combined with counterpoint melodic flow.

"The Saviour" continues the deep bassline of its predecessor, this time adding a bouncing groove that syncopates perfectly with hi-hat percussion and heavy kick. A beautifully filtered arpeggio arrives over the sonic horizon with ease, emerging with hypnotic grace before textured pads and soft vocal breaths add counterpoint progression at the breakdown. The grooved bassline so prominent in the first half once again makes its presence felt as it drops into the second half, to create a headshaking, dancefloor track.

The title track continues the deep bassline and melodic narrative of its partner tracks as a rasping, modulated low-end paves the way for another cadenced bass groove. Intricate motifs sit atop in perfect harmony as the track evolves elegantly over its near nine-minute duration. An earworm theme provides the central melodic focus as the track moves into its breakdown, complemented by a beautiful sonic arrangement full of light and delicate touch. Once again bassline dominance provides the foundation of the third movement as "Soulreaper" showcases grace, skill and craft.

A musical triptych see Subconscious Tales paint a picture full of life through his "Soulreaper" EP.'
