Jay Glass Dubs – Soma (2LP)

“Finding imperfect forms among the debris of sparked-out synths and forgotten pop samples, Jay Glass Dubs crafts a uniquely contemporary LP of abstract electronics — even by his own proven standards. Soma eludes immediate beats in lieu of moody atmospheres, each composition a porous void between techno and something deliciously stranger. ‘One Hundred Seven’ treads snaking strings with militaristic drumrolls, while a pop-like shape emerges in the midst of the digitised glow of ‘Apple, Sliced’ and ‘Our Reversed Uniforms’, the latter featuring a ghostly vocal from Spivak. Jay Glass Dubs stands as a pioneer of modern left field sonics with Soma.”
