Product Description

Product Description Dub drenched futuristic beats! Pioneers of New Zealand electronica,duo Pitch Black present their sixth studio album, ''Third Light''. Their two-decade career of fusing different musical styles is in full effect across the eight track release. Dub, downbeat, techno, drum'n'bass and cinematic ambience are all ingredients in an echo-drenched odyssey that moves the heart and mind and body, as Pitch Black's distinctive sonic signature of deep analogue dub combines with beats ranging from slinky to slamming and vocals spanning enigmatic to emphatic. As the album shifts between dance floor and brain food, it reflects on a world similarly in transition between two states. On the one hand, the planet faces depleting resources and a looming climate emergency; on the other, capitalism and consumerism are marching blindly onward. As a result of this conundrum, there are many contemplative moments on the album, most notably with the world's extinction echoing in the ambience of the final track ''Did You Get the Message''. Despite prevaricating between pessimism and optimism, ''Third Light'' is far from a depressing record. After all, Pitch Black are far from technological luddites, and just as their futuristic beats strive for a progressive future, so they look to a more harmonious tomorrow. Review I've been championing the Dubmission label and its many wonderful artists for years, and the latest from New Zealand's Pitch Black provides just one more reason why. First Light sways between techno, downbeat, dub, and drum'n'bass styles while delivering everything with the group's trademarked expansive and and deeply bassy signature. One of the things I've always loved about these guys is how soft they sound on the surface, and how weird and gritty and progressive their music is when you listen a bit more closely. See if you can catch the political subtexts on this one while you're dancing! Rick Andersen --CD HotList September 2019
