2562 - Aerial, TECTONIC

ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED ALBUMS OF THE YEAR BRINGING YOU 10 KILLER TRACKS FROM 2562 (ONLY FOUR OF THEM HAVE BEEN AVAILABLE BEFORE)!* Over a succession of rhythm melting vinyl releases for Tectonic, SubSolo and Philpot, Dave Huismans has asserted himself as the leading practitioner of forward thinking dancefloor motions currently in operation.

Under the’ Dogdaze, A Made Up Sound and his revered 2562 moniker Huismans has shocked the now merged techno and dubstep fraternities with a brilliantly consistent stream of bare bones riddims encompassing brittle 2-step, lurching techno and bass driven dub with a fractured brokenbeat aesthetic that sounds quite unlike anything else being produced today.

Aerial is Huismans’ massively anticipated debut album and contains some of the most deadly material produced under his 2562 guise, formed into a coherent statement of ten tracks set to detonate headphoness and Soundsystems around the world this summer.

This CD edition pulls together four tracks previously dispatched over the course of three individual 12″s released in the last year, plus six sparkling fresh productions primed to dub the world into submission. The set skanks into view with ‘Redux’ plumbing the depths of a breezing downtempo dub cut in the finest Rhythm & Sound styles, and clearing the airspace for the snaking syncopations of ‘Morvern’.

From here there’s a run of tracks culled from recent releases, ready to educate unblessed ears with some bass stepping sanctification, but the real treats for those who’ve been paying close attention come in the form of the stunning ‘Basin dub’ composed from delicate blue chords and a double-timed rhythmic intuition that couldn’t have come from anyone else, followed by the equally crushing ‘Greyscale’, realisng many a technoXdubstep nerd’s wet dream with a sacred stylistic blend of Burial, Basic Channel and T++ that leaves us floored.

Finally another new effort ‘The times’ signs off the album with some moody and expansive dub chords whipped into spectral plumes over a coma-slow riddim that brings us full circle and ready for repeat. This album follows in the massively revered tradition of dub experimentation and rhythm science laid down in the lineage stretching from Lee Perry through King Tubby, Scientist, Steve Gurley, Dillinja, Photek, Rhythm & Sound, Kode 9 and Burial, so all we can say is that if any of those names have remotely affected you in any way you really need to check this album out. Without doubt one of the albums of the year - absolutely mighty.

Bitesize Beats has been creating mixes for a number of years now, and has seen radio play from a variety of respected mix shows, such as ninja tune’s solid steel, the rinse on Xfm, and back to the basics (BTTB) in Germany. he comes very much from the cut + paste school of digital dj-ing, creating all mixes entirely in ableton live. never content to stick to a single style, previous bitesize beats mixes have taken in alt hip-hop, dubstep, electronica, ambient, soul, downtempo etc - often in the space of a single mix. ableton is used as a tool to cut up, re-arrange, re-edit and layer tracks to take them into new directions - vocal tracks blended with instrumentals, live tracks layered with electronics. the result is a smoothly blended journey of a mix, weaving together different genres and flowing seamlessly between tunes from start to finish.
