Following on from 2020s ‘Moving Forward Into The Past’, which in turn ended a 15 year production hiatus, Theiz doesn’t like to rush things. This is obviously a good thing as the fruit of his labours are careful, considered and profound. Each track on this release carries an air of confidence and gravitas. The acid squelches of ‘We’ll Find A Way’ are dense and leave their mark due to their steady stepping, whereas the remix finds this aspect of the track bent out of shape in order to fit a faster paced, more floor-friendly vibe. ‘ A Quiet Warm Scene’ is a minimal slow burner, artfully composed of three or four patient sonic flourishes, which feel like electric brush strokes, but it’s the title track and its textural layering of deep motifs on a foundation of moist breakbeats which takes the most plaudits in my interplanetary minds eye. Lovely stuff!
