Kostas Soublis
' productions under the
Fluxion
moniker helped define legendary Berlin imprint Chain Reaction, and with 1999's
Vibrant Forms
, the Greek producer released a milestone in the dub techno genre. Hazy and distant, there was still more than enough dancefloor push to propel Soublis into the (very short) list of genre legends, and make
Vibrant Forms
one of the very rare techno albums that works from beginning to end. Out of press for far too long, this new edition of
Vibrant Forms
has been remastered and will finally see the entire album released on vinyl for the first time. The most shocking thing hearing it almost 15 years after its original release, however, is how little it has dated. Soublis wisely avoided any cultural tropes, and the productions still sound fresh and deceptively alien. Through washes and waves of reverb and the faint thud of a kick drum, the all-analog productions contain a raw quality that is all too rare these days. Just head to the album's elegiac closing number "Opaque." Upbeat and propulsive, the track still maintains a deceptive calm, buoyed by swirling synthesizer washes and sizzling, tape-saturated percussion. This is the way dub techno should sound -- don't accept any imitations,
Vibrant Forms
is the real thing. Completely remastered by
Matt Colton
at Alchemy.
