Samuel van Dijk (VC-118A) and Rasmus Hedlund return for a third plate in their ongoing exploration of roots-minded dub techno with Jamaica-born, Finland-based vocalist Benji.
The vocals set the tone on both these new tracks, as Benji meditates on internal and external forces with his own brand of old-soul wisdom. ‘Better Way’ is an upfront steppa reflecting on the need for new solutions to solve humanity’s enduring problems, while ‘Child Was I’ travels deeper inwards to highlight the importance of lived experience in shaping the inner self as we grow.
Alongside the vocal versions, Dialog offer up the instrumental versions of the tracks for the full dubwise listening experience, letting every melancholic synth lick and echo chamber drum trail shine through as their project continues to forge its own path in the dub techno tradition.
