ORIENTIS RECORDS is a brand new music label which sets to introduce new deeper and emotive dimensions to dubstep, and other bass music, by working with artists already making waves in the scene, and seeking underplayed talents that deserve the limelight.
COLECO, based in Bristol UK, is widely becoming known as a pioneer in melodic genre-bending, bass driven music. He originally set dance floors alight with his post-dubstep/heavy funk crossover 12" début 'Campfire Funk' on Soul Motive Records, and as the evolving sub-genres of dubstep continue to further cross-pollinate with the rest of music itself, Coleco sets new standards of multi-genre influenced dubstep by kicking off ORIENTIS RECORDS with this new 4 track vinyl EP.
MARTYR starts off the EP with a Pan-Asian influenced, funky breaks driven number. Building an introduction with spacious, floating sitar and flute lines, you're woken from meditation by a colossal drum break unexpectedly dropping in, soon bringing all the elements from the intro back into context coupled with a pounding sub-layered acoustic double bass.
MORBID CURIOSITY takes a classic live funk break to the operating table, twists it up half-time style, and stitches on a roaring sub-bass that's surgically designed to tear bass bins apart, creating an evolving monster that's ripped through the walls of a few dance floors already.
TAOSTIC offers a chance to recover, to kick back, or groove along to this Dub-Eastern crossover, weaving in and out of dreamy flute and female vocal melodies, whilst ambient guitar licks, dub reggae style sub-bass, and warm retro drums drive the whole thing forward.
AETHER opens up with dark and gritty haunting atmospherics and filters in moody offbeat Guhzeng stabs, deep sine waves, and a pounding breakbeat. The breakdown then offers the chance for the elements to creep back in again, eventually exploding into a crescendo of double time drums, bringing to EP to a heavy funk finale.
