Subconsciousness by Holy Saucer

AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS – Multimedia artist Holy Saucer cumulates his mastery of electronic music production, photography and painting into debut EP Subconsciousness: a deliciously deep dive into dub techno ambiance laid out across five tracks.

The record opens with Stranger Things, a production steeped in dub techno traditions, but distinctly progressive and a track which refuses to chew on the same ideas from twenty years ago. The A-side also includes ever-flowing Fountain and concludes with Elegant Saw, best described as a cool cascade, plunging downward as it gently saws out a 3/4 measure path within hidden filtered 4/4 waving strings – leaving it to the creative to mix abstractly in between.

On the flip side, allow Transcendent to carry you gently into a tempting dub house groove. While title track Subconsciousness is the final offering on the B-side, creeping along below sea level and inspired by the iconic Amsterdam NDSM U-boat from the EP’s cover artwork, which was photographed and painted by especially by the artist for this release.
