[Dub Techno Release] Textural Being – Transmission EP (Tiefenrausch 006)

Long time favourite here at Dub Techno Blog, Textural Being is back with an outstanding 3 track ep available on vinyl and digital. Tiefenrausch are becoming one of the ‘buy before listen’ labels in my collection, the previous 5 releases have all been amazing and their 6th is no different. Really hard to choose a favourite track, they are all amazing.

This one gets the Dub Techno Blog Approved stamp.

With their sixth release Tiefenrausch keeps on delivering excellent dubtechno this time by Textural Being from Portland.

We enter the EP with an overwhelming deepness in ‘Safe Places’ and sink right in. With ‘Transmission’ we walk on the thin line between house and dub. A reminiscence to the classy days of disco music combined with roughness par excellence. ‘Descend’ back again under the water surface to get drown into the dubbyness of this Textural Being.

The EP is the first one to come with new Cover artwork. We‘d like to thank Cris for his outstanding artwork of Tiefenrausch 1-5 and are looking forward to marvel at the next 5 releases designed by Alex Ketzer.

Im really loving the artwork for this release, such wonderful, vibrant colours, oh and the music aint that bad either 😀

Seriously though Textural Being (as I’ve said countless times before) is one of the masters and one of my fav producers in this music. I don’t know how he manages to output such sheer quality month on month. Hats off again to you sir.

[Free Release] DeepWarmth – Shades of Warmth (Cold Fiction Music 038)

Posted by The High Plains Drifter on August 1, 2012August 6, 2012 Posted in Ambient, Creative Commons Release, Creative Commons Release, Dub Techno/Deep Techno Tagged cold fiction music, deepwarmth, Textural Being

Very, very nice release from DeepWarmth & Cold Fiction, with great melodic chords and ambient back drops. The Textural Being remix is something a little special too.

DeepWarmth returns to the label for the second time with another release. This time around he’s diving into the slower side of Dub Techno while still keeping his same style as heard on DW/TB: Split Ep. The Delayed snares are still around, but less present and the smoothness is more apparent in this release. Though he ends out the release with a slight change in style with Released Air. More Ambient Techno than anything, its slow build is not one to be missed. He’s also joined by 2 label mates, Coppice Halifax and Textural Being, who give their interpretations of 2 tracks on the release. If you’re a fan of Dub Techno, this is sure to please.

I honestly do not know where Textural Being gets the time to create and give away so much AMAZING music. This LP had me on my knees begging for more as soon as i listened to the first track ‘Sept’ (it’s probably my favourite track on the LP actually)

Trademark Textural Being sounds on this LP, smooth, rolling and hypnotic.

Dear friends and listeners,
We bring you the brigthest emotions for your inner worlds, scenarios for daydreaming and extra colours for warm sunsets.

[Free Release] Textural Being – Paix EP (Basic Sounds 022)

Posted by The High Plains Drifter on June 6, 2012January 30, 2015 Posted in Creative Commons Release, Dub Techno Blog Approved, Dub Techno/Deep Techno Tagged basic sounds, Textural Being

TB gave the track “Paix” away for free a few months back but I’m happy to see its made it’s way, with 2 other tracks onto a net label release.

Portland based producer Textural Being (aka Sage Taylor) has been composing for well over a decade and has appeared on numerous netlabels specializing in deep and chill electronica. Influenced by the Pacific Northwest, Textural Being’s stylistic approaches vary from deep ambient soundscapes to more immersive dubby techno. His main source of inspiration comes from nature and the rich beauty of his natural environment.

“Les Lucioles” (which translates to “the Fireflies”) is an infectious and grooving dub-techno track that seamlessly incorporates floating textures with deep chugging beats. “Nightshade” is a shimmering and immersive soundscape propelled forward by soft glowing chords, distant floating terrains and pulses. “Paix” closes the release with a hypnotically circulating minimal techno arrangement underpinned with padded bass and lush dub-infected chords.
