With this month's instalment of Hydro-Static Pressure I wanted to explore the new wave of future facing, experimental modern 'weightless' club sounds that have been churning away across the globe for the last couple of years or so.
It's really not so much a defined sound as a shifting mass of various styles and aesthetics all colliding head on in a cacophonous concoction of dystopian future minded, bass heavy club, grime, glitchy, trap, and techno beats, industrial, wonked out synths and bass lines, lush ambience, sound design/collage and pure noise - sometime all within one song. I guess if I was going to describe it to someone in one sentence it might be 'post-dystopian future psychedelic club music straight out of the internet'. I guess.
