French duo Froid Dub keeps twisting its slow-motion dub DNA and hits hard with the release of “Positive and Natural” on Delodio. Hypnotic and raw, this eight-track manifesto glides across the holy trinity: 808, 303 and tape delays, smashing together true-school dub synths, club culture and experimental twists with a tectonic aesthetic that has you picturing a gigantic iceberg drifting slowly but unrelentingly across the ocean. A masterclass of a record that flaunts its roots and stays deeply personal. Froid Dub once again proves its singular talent for pumping up a dancefloor at an average of 85 BPM.
STAFF COMMENTS
Barry says: Froid Dub takes the established dub sound and the origins of the genre into new territory with a more avant distillation of the core elements including hypnotic synth swells and soaring melodic vocals atop the swirling echoes and saturated percussive backdrop, or switching out the dub bass for an insistent Curtis filtered bass (if that bass isn't a Prophet / Prophet VST i'll eat one of my many hats).TRACK LISTING
