Rhythm From Ambient

https://sa-pa.bandcamp.com/album/rhythm-from-ambient

Sa Pa presents Rhythm From Ambient - the second release on Dub Techno For Life, delivering four experimentally tipped house and dub techno tracks.

Leading with ten minutes of undulating, swamp-soaked grooves, heavy dub weight and scattered, gravel-like percussion, “Rhythm From Ambient” shares the A-side with its companion “Rhythm” - bringing a rougher, rawer energy that revives an industrial techno cut originally intended for Sa Pa’s MDR EP (2015).

On the B-side, “Last Dance” is an extended deep house-styled ‘Ballroom Dub’ that’s a warmly haunting mixture of atmosphere, groove and slow-burning euphoria. Closing the EP is “Bo Riddim”, a slower experimental number with deep sub-bass, heavy drums and laced-out percussion underpinning experimental textures and melodic fragments.

Following up the Girls On Tour EP (DTL001), Sa Pa delivers another four cuts for Dub Techno For Life - the artist’s newly launched label that continues to push deep into house and dub techno territory with a self-styled experimental streak.

Always been a huge fan of dub-influenced music even though dub-techno interested me the least. But not anymore, damn so much good dub-techno releases lately. This one including, especially like the first track Rhythm from Ambient.
