PREMIERE: Foreign Material - Above Abysmal Rivers [Navigare Audio]
Ethereal inspirations are the name of today’s musical game as we look to Martin Respaut aka Foreign Material and his aptly titled, ‘Saturnian’ EP. Drawing inspiration from Saturnus, the god of time, transcendence and agriculture, Foreign Material has crafted a journey that moves seamlessly through the peaks and valleys of deep, hypnotic techno and beyond. On this EP, he’s also joined by Toffes Värld who provides a reimagination of Saturnian Dub.
Above Abysmal Rivers is the last but certainly not least track of the Saturnian EP. Coming in as the digital bonus, Foreign Material slows things down to a rhythmic 98 bpm, providing that chuggy low slung vibe that is all over our Delayed HQ. Nicely textured synths add to the movement, fending off the repetitiveness, while a glittering melody builds and our favorite melancholic pads round out the atmosphere.
Foreign Material’s Saturnian EP will be released on the Navigare Audio imprint, March 29th.
