      I cannot begin to explain this record in a such an eloquent and detailed way as other reviewers I’ve had the pleasure of reading here. So I won’t. I will just say that I enjoyed the production and mood overall. Not quite as mind blowing as I would have hoped for or liked - but I don’t quite know why as it is put together very well. Certainly it is My cuppa T for sure though now I’ve heard it a few times, and after a few times listening in the car and at home it’s sinking into me and growing on me. It’s moody, abstract and dark and dubby yet in places quite speedy, and yet in other places quite downtempo. Its an album best played for me With the lights off and dreaming of a warehouse - and it delivers an experience unlike any other album I’ve heard and yet reminds me of burials stuff a bit. Whilst I am a music lover and collector of underground music I’ve yet to find something quite as dancey yet often minimal and abstract as this. So for this I give it some well earned praise. Finally - I would recommend this to those who appreciate deeper darker sounds of house, dubstep and future garage. Also worth buying dbridge’s fabric mix if you like what you hear here.

        It begins with Descent. A slow, quiet, and eerie slide of minor chords into a track that kicks off the album, followed by Latch, a light syncopated beat with rolling bass, organic strings, and ghostly vocals. Scuba's latest release, Triangulation, is more than a collection of tracks - a few have previously appeared as 12" EPs - it's an intelligent headphone experience of lush atmospheres and dub influenced environments. The tracks evolve and carry forward their themes, blending from one to another, locking your mind into the hypnotic rhythms of Scuba's staple sound. Let's rewind a bit to 2003. This is the year when Paul Rose founded the now famous Hotflush Recordings. On it he released about a dozen of 12" under his Scuba alias (see Catalog numbers with SCUBA prefix), as well as his first full length, A Mutual Antipathy (Hotflush, 2008). And I'm not even counting a few 12-inchers on Abucs (Scuba spelled backwards), a sublabel of Hotflush. Triangulation is Rose's second full-length release that breaches a classification of genres, which I would almost classify as ambient two-step meeting minimal techno in the abandoned tunnel of dub. On the title of the album, Rose hints at the blend of genres: “It’s basically the three central musical ideas of house/techno, dubstep and this weird drum ‘n bass stuff. These were the three inputs, if you like." And that's not a surprise. Having lived and performed in as of late (Rose runs a monthly event at Berlin's Berghain), the sound of minimalism has clearly crept up into his production. That includes a few four-to-the-floor stomping tracks in the spirit of Berlin's sound, as well as crystal clear and tight production wrapped around the low frequencies of rumbling bass. If you're only waking up to dubstep, it's time for you to whip out your wallet and add a few albums from the label's catalog. The highlights of the label's roster include Pangaea, Untold, TRG, Boxcutter, and Sigha. Oh, and don't forget to check out out Joy Orbison and Mount Kimbie!
