Unbalance is the new album from 2562, scheduled for release by Tectonic Recordings on November 2nd.



It's the long-awaited follow-up to his landmark debut, Aerial, which came out on in early summer 2008 and has proved to be one of the most influential and vividly-realized dubstep albums yet made, stretching and squashing the sound into totally new shapes and forms. At the time, much was said of Aerial ploughing a furrow between dubstep and techno, but in retrospect that seems a gross simplification; 2562 had in fact created a style all his own, and this is borne out by the fact that no one has yet been able to successfully imitate it.



Over the past year or so Huismans has continued to produce a number of 2562 singles and remixes, but arguably he's placed more emphasis on his other project, A Made Up Sound, which finds him exploring more of a Detroit-influenced, broken house and techno sound. There's definitely a whiff of AMUS to the new 2562 album. And boy, what an album it is.



Aerial was plenty daring and distinctive, but on Unbalance Huismans really takes his sound to the next level; the drum programming is simply off the chain, the ultra-tight editing and control of depth and dynamics quite genuinely awe-inspiring.


Tectonic boss Pinch says: "I've worked closely with 2562 over the last few years and I can honestly say that Unbalance is an incredible album – it’s one of the most exciting releases that Tectonic has seen to date - it vastly exceeds the already high standard he set himself with Aerial."



Trust Pinch, readers, and trust us; Unbalance is big.

excellent news.

GREAT

But with Kameleon VIP on it, it would have been even bigger imho! Need that track!

2562 is

DO WANT

Sick. If Love In Outer Space, the recent A Made Up Sound stuff and his set at FreeRotation are anything to go by this going to be next level

I suspect he'll be playing some of these tunes next months when he swings round this part of the world

Can't wait to get my hands on the new album, Big!

Look forward to hearing this shit....

.... on a boat .....

.... in Croatia.... bo!

I haven't been so excited about anything in years. First time seeing 2562 as well!

seriously i had no idea this was coming
cannot wait to hear this

i honestly don't know how to feel about this. i was looking forward to aerial before it came out but after listening to it a few times i got really bored. there was some good tunes though. on the other hand 'love in outer space' is absolutely huge and totally different of what 2562 has done so far so let's see... i hope this will be a big album!

by the way does anyone know if moving ninja album is still coming out on tectonic this year? i remember hearing that sort of info somewhere.

I love Aerial, but I thought the releases he's had since then as 2562 and A Made Up Sound blow it out of the water...so needless to say, I'm REALLY excited for this one. Top guy, and amazing musician!

Oh yeah, he's a really good DJ as well, so you guys should be excited for that. I personally feel a little warm inside knowing that he named a track Narita...glad this country had a little influence on him

NICE!!!!!

def looking forward to it. his set at dub war this year was soooooooooo good!
