"Leaning into 2022 with bass music artistry for you and you, Vienna's Sub Audio Records strikes again. Welcoming new faces to the label discography, the 21st digital outing 'Avalanche' has French talent Qant operate the controls, featuring a collaboration with Stacktrace & a remix by long-time Sub Audio family and Dubstep don Ourman. Four tracks on a digital platter with heaps of authentic Breaks and Jungle influences and sound system culture flavours, clocking in at 140 BPM.
Dubbed out and with intense foreboding, 'Avalanche Dub' untethers its auditory low-frequency barrage without mercy, moving air with style. Soundclash vocal fragments and rolling percussion complete the ensuing blurred vision. Proceeding our journey into Jungle flavours, 'Respect' maintains that elusive balance between bass-weight meditation and rave inferno, ready and primed for the dance. 'Spreading Words' moves mountains with lionhearted force and power on a road of contemplation - riddled with beautifully syncopated breaks, haunting melodies and pulsating low-end foundation. Reconstituted by none other than Ourman, the remix remains faithful to the original, infused with the signature style we've come to know and love.
Hold tight for the ride as Qant takes you through gritty heavyweight soundscapes, be sure to check what he's got in stock for your ears and soul. Among others, the swiftly aspiring badman has released with Vibez '93, Bassweight Operations, Instigate Recordings and Eyesome - including vinyl releases and support by the likes of Al Wootton, Sicaria Sound, RDG, and Coco Bryce. In it with full force, he's also a part of the Egregore Collective and putting his technical proficiency in the studio to good use with bespoke mastering services."
