Scuba - Cognitive Dissonance

[deadly_habit]

it's rare to hear atmospheic dnb these days, this was unexpected on scuba's lp
this is like a modern ltj bukem or old asc tune
anyone else rate this? the production is so clean

[hurlingdervish]

anyone else rate this?

I do now.

[wormcode]

Yeah man.
The breaks are used well, they are almost a filler or afterthought for the rest of the tune. It's driven by that atmosphere and huge synths. Love that, definitely get a 90s vibe.

Heard a couple of these singles like The Hope, but didn't even know t€hey were part of an LP, thanks for that. Loved the last 2.

[makerowner]

Yeah this was my fav of the album
Another Scuba dnb tune, off the Exit records compilation:


There's lots of synthy dnb around these days that I'm getting into more. Consequence's first album was really good.
Anyone know what synths Scuba uses? I've been meaning to ask on here for a while.

Google 'scuba gear'

Nice tune, Scuba is a bowser.

[Sonika]

sounds a bit slower than 170? anyways yeah it's a beaut

[Mammoth]

sounds a bit slower than 170? anyways yeah it's a beaut

Some of my favorite dnb is around 162-165

[Sonika]

Yeah it sounds more comfortable imo a lot of the faster stuff can feel forced

[ultraspatial]

Easily the best tune off that album. Reminds of that Autonomic sound dBridge & Instra:mental were pushing. NOMIC001-003 were hands down my favourites from 2010. Not to mention Fabriclive 50...

[Akuratyde]

Chemical Records lists it at 85 BPM (170/2), I think it's the drum patterns that make it feel slower.

^ THIS. Shame what happened with Instra:Mental

[ultraspatial]

I know... But at least they're going to release one last EP in that style.

Rare to hear atmospheric dnb?
Deadly, do you not keep up with Puzzle? Spirant? bop? clarity? spherique? anyone releasing on MedSchool for that matter? even synkro on occasion? Dsve? Even Joy Orbison?
So many names man

[deadly_habit]

bop and a few others, never been a fan of hospital and the sub labels tbh when it came to liquid
always prefered the stuff like global connections series on covert ops, subtle audio etc
honestly i don't follow releases or mixes that much for any genres cept when i'm shopping for new tunes, that about as much effort as i put in these days and what i hear when i say once in a blue moon dl a mix from someone i've been following for years or go out to nights

Yeah, Bop and the whole Microfunk crew, Abstract Elements, the Space Cadets stuff, Silent Dust...

[Sonika]

med school is a cool label


I love lung, although I'm mainly more partial to his 140 stuff like sky people, afterlife, etc

[Muncey]

Easily the best tune off that album.

theres some really good stuff on medschool, it's not even a liquid label. Just check in on some of the new blood series and eps they put out

[bassinine]

really cool mix from microfunk, all made out of an 808 kick sample. the sound design is insane. the first song and the one at 20 minutes are personal favorites. wish i could find a proper tracklist.

Haven't heard this mix in ages, I need to track down those artists.
