Son.sine - Upekah

[bastianlaigaard]

Pre order here: http://www.delsinrecords.com/release.php?idxRelease=3634 Thirteen years ago the Nurture label released upekah, the one and only single to come under the son.sine alias. It’s an alias of a New Zealander who released only a select few EPs under different monikers, and one that sounds as good today as it did back then given all its dub infused techno glory. It’s always been hard to come buy but now Delsin are remastering and rereleasing it into the world once more. First up is the title track, a double deep track of spacious, gently pulsing dub that initially revels in blissfully ambient swirls before growing a touch more edgy and metallic in the latter half thanks to some panning steel stabs. On the flip, 'karuna' is just as deep and cavernous. Filling the huge chambers of echo and reverb are more ambient patterns, subtle beams of light and an ever churning, grainy dub undercurrent. Lastly, 'Mudita' is more propulsive and up right, with hunched drums rotating below and rueful ambient drones up top. Classy business indeed from the New Zealander.

Son.sine, Upekah

The New Zealand techno scene has never been much of a going concern, but it has turned out some incredible records. The community has always been small, the parties not as frequent or as frequented as would be ideal, but there is a deep love of quality music. With its first release in 1997, Simon Flower's Nuture label captured the country's most accomplished producers over a period of five years. His own tracks alongside those of producers like Micronism, Clone and son.sine still stand the test of time today, evidenced by Styrax and Delsin both re-issuing old Nuture records this month. For their part, Delsin are re-pressing son.sine's hugely sought-after Upekah EP. The title track is without any hyperbole, one of the most beautiful, desolate moments in the canon of techno ever committed to wax.
