ZIQ272LP - Ital Tek - Midnight Colour

[airlabam]

I find this album jaw-dropping. Along with Starkey's new album (Ear Drums and Black Holes), I have been in heaven; this is the production territory I want to start moving in. Smooth, heavy, grimy but clean, grooves hard, so cosmic, so melodic, so harmonic, and uplifting. I can't get enough of it; when so much other dubstep just makes me lose my attention or make me go 'huh' but yet still leave me feeling a bit sad that I can't move to it, this stuff hits such a sweet spot. Perhaps that is partially the latent string player in me, though, but I love the synth work. Any ideas on what synths they're using?
