Goth-Trad | Psychic Power

Skittering percussion over menacing synth lines and heavy swigs of bass; Goth-Trad presents us with an eclectic sound collection. Expect layers, and lots of them – new noises disappear almost as fast as they are introduced.

Midway through the song’s nuanced madness, Goth-Trad settles the energy and introduces another set of sounds, conjured by what we can safely assume are the most esoteric of instruments.

Hailed as “Japan’s dubstep Godfather,” Takeaki Maruyama has released his fourth solo album this February. In conjunction with Mala ‘s Deep Medi imprint, Maruyama reveals New Epoch . Despite utilizing dubstep as a template for the LP, the connotation associated with the genre provides minimal detail to this vast soundscape:

“I’m always looking for more direction and styles within my work, but I’m not really thinking I’m doing dubstep. I’m just doing my sound. I’ve been doing this style of music for almost ten years and I just say all this music is bass music.”
