nthng – Sub-Sonar
Format : 12"
Label : Delsin
Catalog # : 151DSR
Genre : Ambient Techno
Dutch producer nthng returns to Delsin with another four pieces of melodic, ambient-spirited techno following his 2017 label debut Turn To Gaia. Sub-Sonar opens with the beatless, melancholic reflection of ‘Looking Outside’ before drifting into the submersion chamber pulse of ‘Liberate Truth’. Guided by the hypnotic allure of dub techno, the track follows a linear path through spacious chord drops and understated drum jack. Following a similar rhythmic tract, ‘Sub-Sonar’ offers up a cloudy, sombre beatdown shot through with winsome sine wave blips. As a surprise parting shot, ‘1 2 Butterfly’ shakes up the scene with a crooked breakbeat treatment which cuts an angular path through the hazy atmospheric tones nthng has made his own.
