About this item

Introspekt’s hotly anticipated debut album “Moving The Center” comes nearly a year after the release of her latest EP “Tectónica”. “Moving the Center” sees Introspekt play homage to dubstep’s point of genesis in South London in order to then shift the center of focus from a singular point of origin, to a more global narrative of bass and vibration. The album blends UK bass with contrasting genres like garage and ballroom, creating the perfect feminine blend of these historically masculine genres. The album merges the Black diaspora from across the Atlantic, crafting a sonic world where past, present and future are parallel and immersed in an early millennium type dubstep soundscape.

Speaking about the album, Introspekt says, ‘”Moving The Center” embodies an alternate perspective to that which has been dominant in dance music, particularly so-called bass music. The narrative it presents is one which throws a wrench in the seemingly common perception of dubstep as a masculinist sensibility. “Moving The Center” pushes a feminine physicality to the front of the bassbins. Femmes to the front!’ 

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Precision bass techniques from the other side of the pond as the US's Introspekt takes cues from London's garage and dubstep scenes to create her own view of feminine bass music.
