Notes:
After a long hiatus from the imprint over the past six years, white label Italian imprint Outlaw delivers welcomes the return of its label boss, Matthew Oh. Comprised of four originals with the labels dub-tinged aesthetic.
Since its inception with the ‘Outlaw’ EP by Matthew Oh back in 2015, the Italian label of the same name has slowly unveiled a heavily dub influenced blend of House, Techno and Electronica cuts on the label by the likes of TM_Shuffle, Gradient, Ohm & Octal Industries and more, while here it sees the welcome return of label founder, Matthew Oh with some freshly prepared dubbed out deep Techno cuts.
Opening the EP is title-track ‘Unseen’, laid out across seven minutes with a murky atmospherics tension, looped vocal murmurs, resonant synth flutters and shuffled, saturated drums. The aptly titled ‘Submerged’ then dives deeper via an amalgamation of fluttering dub stabs, vacillating bass swells, heavily swung percussion and heavily dub reggae vocal chants.
‘Transition’ kicks off the B-side of the EP, embracing a softer feel via airy, ethereal pad textures, shimmering stab lines and crisp, stripped back drums before ‘Voices’ rounds out the release with bumpy bass notes, hypnotic unfurling chord sequences, hypnotic drones and haunting voices throughout.
Hand-stamped white label, limited to 300 copies.
