feeder sound exclusive premiere: Fat Dubs – Back at it [Teist Records]
Madrid-based label Teist Records sets sail with founder Fat Dubs at the controls delivering three amazing cuts in the form of “Expressio” EP. Designed with groovy beats, rich textures, immersive atmospheric elements and Romanian lyrics, the record highlights both the artist’s musical taste and production skills as well as the imprint’s concept which will focus on releasing microhouse, rominimal and deep genres only in vinyl format, emphasizing the “simplicity” of minimal music paired with classy and elegant designs and aesthetics.
“In this project, I came back to music production after a difficult year for my art creation. I have been a prisoner of work, but thanks to the effort I made to build my studio from the ground, I have been able to focus on my passion and create this EP. This time I dive into the cultural movement known as “Rominimal”, a subgenre of house music developed in Romania.” – Fat Dubs
Opening Side B, our featured track “Back at it” was the first one to be produced, marking the artist’s return to music-making. It starts slowly with a solid uplifting beat and mysterious background textures, gradually gaining momentum as the other layers smoothly flow one into another. The dubby arpeggios, spacial atmospheres and soft synths elegantly combine with the drumming patterns while the sub-bass gives even more power to everything, acting as the glue of the whole journey.
Following and closing the flipside, “Morning Routine” drops a mystic ambience flavoured with loads of layers of textures and reverbs that can make anyone go directly into trance mode. Perfect for peak-time moments at any party, the track reflects the artist’s passion for minimal music and dub influences as well as his decision to spend mornings in the studio.
Side A is reserved for “Mai Deep”, a swinging composition powered by solid basslines, low-slung percussion, dubby insertions and Anca Monica‘s phased vocals which give extra depth to the track. The impersonal speech is loyal to the cultural history of Romania while the name is inspired by the beach where Sunwaves Festival takes place, combining the deepness of the music and the sea.
