New Compilation from subVariant: “Robohustlin”

Last Updated on Friday, 22 October 2010 05:06 Written by Liz McLean Knight Sunday, 3 October 2010 11:14

I put together a compilation of melodic IDM / deep techno called Robohustlin for my label, subVariant. I put out an open call for submissions in July and got an amazing collection of submissions. I decided to go with minimal techno / melodic IDM since that was submitted the most. Hope you enjoy!

Chaircrusher’s “Crow Beat” and Milipede’s “30,000″ take a somewhat dark, harder approach, while tracks like Diarmo’s “Details” and Matt Wolfe’s “4:09am” hover somewhere between hopefulness and melancholy, held together with intricate rhythmic programming.

In keeping with subVariant’s tongue-in-cheek, music-as-consumer-product design aesthetic (see Subvaritrax, Exception AM), Robohustlin‘s digital cover lists the individual artists as separate “cures” in a packaging style based on the popular cough & cold medication, Robitussin.

1. Chaircrusher: “Crowbeat“
2. Millipede: “30,000“
3. Digital Gnosis: “Ruins“
4. Redun: “Splt“
5. Tapage & Stan Verberkt: “Modular“
6. CitizenGreen: “Ob“
7. Matt Wolfe: “4:09am“
8. Michael Una: “Aleph“
9. Elijah B Torn: “oooEight“
10. JahWarrior: “The Mad Piano“
11. Codebase: “Duel“
12. Diarmo: “Details“
13. Glen Stefani: “Over it Already v2“
