ABOUT THIS ITEM

Following the first Scuba LP, "A Mutual Antipathy" (2008), and the more recent "Aesaunic" EP (2009), this album takes the Scuba sound to a whole new level. The collision of dubstep and techno has produced startling music from a wide range of producers in the last few years (see Martyn, 2562, Joy Orbsion, Floating Points, F etc), none more than Scuba, and that has been well documented. But "Triangulation" moves past the dubstep / techno axis and into new territory. Working at multiple tempos, the album covers an area ranging from house to experimental drum'n'bass while retaining the Scuba sound that has become so distinctive. "You Got Me" and "So You Think You’re Special", released as an advance 12”, reflect the range of the album with the huge bass and frenetic energy of the former contrasting with the melancholic atmospheres and melodies of the latter. The listless beauty of "Before", the aggressively percussive Minerals and the hyperactive electro of "On Deck" provide further stylistic variation, but this is not simply a collection of tracks – for the best sonic results this album should be listened to in full.
