Copenhagen's Echocord returns with the Invincible Nature EP by Altone, backed by a remix from Thomas Fehlmann and Another Channel. Atone is the guise of Tokyo's Yuki Takasaki, one of the leading figures of the genre out of Japan with releases on the likes of Greyscale, Lempuyang, Vuo, Æ Recordings, Primary [colours] and many more. His distinctive twist on dub techno has earned him accolades worldwide within the underground and here he joins the roster of the esteemed Echocord, the Kenneth Christiansen helmed label that's been at the forefront of dub techno for more than two decades now. The original mix of "Naturally Unnatural" opens, showcasing Altone's unique style via subtly nuanced chord flutters, expansive reverberations, pulsating low end tones and ever unfolding, subtly unfurling feel. The "Naturally Flowing Thomas Fehlmann Remix" follows, the Swiss sonic wizard and former member of the legendary The Orb among many other projects delivers deep, throbbing subs and glitched out synth modulations intertwined with fragments of the original composition. "Unnaturally Balanced" then opens the B-Side with Altone diving deeper into dub realms courtesy of ever alternating, billowing dub echoes and a raw, reduced rhythm section. The "Another Channel Version" of "Unnaturally Balanced" then rounds out the EP, embracing a more classic dub techno aesthetic as crunchy drums, swirling atmospherics and spaced-out echoes ebb and flow amongst one another across the six and half minute duration. Pressed on turquoise colored vinyl.
