Returning to Suffused Music, GBrown provides an impressive musical triptych through his "Absolute" EP.
Based in the famous musical city of New Orleans, Gary J. Brown has found a home on Suffused Music with his GBrown production moniker. First appearing on the label in April 2016 as an undiscovered gem on the "Initializing Vol. 9" series with "This Is Who We Are", the US artist then went on to include the track as part of his debut "Open" EP some four months later. Proving popular amongst his peers, his music has been remixed by some of the finest underground house artists including Monojoke, Ewan Rill and Bobby Deep.
Moreover, GBrown has also found his music signed to a clutch of other impressive labels including Electronic Tree, Welcome Music and Consapevole Recordings, with the latter accounting for "The Dreamer Is The Dream" in October 2018. Now returning to Suffused Music for the first time in two years, the title track is built upon a seismic sub bass groove that moves elegantly around percussive elements and ticking shakers. Building in effervescent fashion, a rolling 16th note phrase adds urgency as emotive chords are played out through layered pads and breathy vocal phrasing. A wash of white noise fills the breakdown, before the dominant bassline groove drops back into the mix with ease to create a dark and sinister affair.
The twin part "Counteracting Principles" follows with "Part 1" providing an energised offbeat hi-hat pattern and pulsating pad that paves the way for a trademark rolling bassline to supply urgency. Smooth pads and delay-soaked lead line meander across the upper-frequencies in free-flowing patterns that creates a heady sonic juxtaposition above the percussive groove. A chorus of effects and dramatic layers further adds suspense and intrigue.
Full of white-noise washes and intriguing synth line that coruscates above heavy beat and metronomic percussion, "Part 2" presents a glorious collage of sounds that provide fluid motion and organic elements with a filmic quality. Intermittent synth plucks make their mark post-breakdown to add structure and club-friendly cadence to proceedings in a track that ably illustrates GBrown's skill and production craftsmanship.
Three tracks full of intrigue and dynamism illustrate GBrown's "Absolute" attention to detail and dedication to his work.
