Description
Label owner Xpb1 releases a debut two-track of expansive post-industrial music. The sound is dark, dystopian, and melancholic. Both tracks are built on minimalist percussion and dominated by heavy, ominous sub-bass. The lonely, siren-like echoes of an androgynous voice permeate the structure of rhythm and pressure, while Doppler effects pierce the tracks, mimicking the lights of a night train.
These two tracks sit between post-dubstep and industrial, with added cinematic, rigid techno sensibilities. The record was mastered by Rashad Becker, cut by Dubplates and Mastering, and hand-stamped with gold ink on a black 180g label.

Label owner Xpb1 starts his recording career with a crepuscular two tracker of post-industrial, spacious reflections in a dark and dystopian, yet melancholic, hauntological tone. The two tracks have been constructed over a base layer of minimalistic percussion and are dominated by a heavy and menacing sub-bass. The architecture of rhythm and pressure is drenched in the echo of lonely siren laments in androgynous voice, while doppler effects pierce through the track mimicking the light flicking in a night train ride. The two constructions fall somewhere between the cracks of post-dubstep and industrial with the added cinematic rigidness, and tunnel vision of techno. The record has been mastered by Rashad Becker, cut by Dubplates and Mastering and hand stamped with golden ink on a black label 180g vinyl.
