Drum Tangle

A 1 track electronic single (5m 27s) — released September 1st 2021 on Noods Radio

Ossia kicks off the birthday celebrations with a classic slab of dark, stepping dub. Cymbals and hand drums echo over a steady heartbeat of rumbling sub. A perfect incantation for both dancefloor and seance.

NOOD5 features contributions from six friends of the Noods family, consisting of Berlin based techno iconoclast Ossia, shadowy Bristol producer fresh from a highly acclaimed EP on Berceuse Heroique, Pessimist, Timedance affiliate Cleyra, Milanese sound experimentalist Katatonic Silentio, Rio underground lynchpin and RBMA graduate Valesuchi and a collaboration from Dekmantel's Epsilove and the elusive Ployer Fower.

The record is a confident assertion of the station's sonic ethos; filled with tense, dread-laden soundscapes that foreground the percussion and sub bass. Reverbs and delays are utilised in the true dub tradition, wringing out unconventional grooves from the negative space between the drums: it's music for the head and the body.

Originally intended to be released on our fifth birthday hence the name, fuck it — the pandemic slowed much down so have it on our sixth birthday instead.
