Subtronics’ ‘TESSERACT’ Shatters Dimensions: Inside the Genre-Bending Album That’s Redefining Dubstep

Cyclops Army, rise up for Subtronics, crowned “Best DJ” at DJ Mag’s Best of North America Awards 2023, and the official long-awaited release of TESSERACT – the time has come for us to gather, catch a vibe, and celebrate.

In the ever-evolving realm of electronic dance music, Subtronics has once again pushed the boundaries with his sophomore album. This release marks a new chapter in the artist’s journey, blending his signature heavy dubstep sound with an expansive array of genres, from the pulsating drum & bass of “Only Star You See” to the intense build-up and headbanging climax of the first track “Cottage Gore.” The album not only showcases Subtronics’ mastery over his craft but also dives into the depths of his imagination, inspired by his fascination with higher dimensions and quantum physics.

TESSERACT is an exploration of the concept of a four-dimensional hypercube, where each track serves as a portal to a different facet of Sub’s musical and philosophical universe. From the black hole-esque “Omnidirectional” to the spacetime ripples of “Quantum Queso,” and the extraterrestrial-themed “Alien Communication” co-written with Lykke Li, the album transcends the conventional boundaries of electronic music. Collaborations with artists like Grabbitz, Crooked Bangs, and HOL! add layers of complexity and emotion, creating a diverse and immersive experience.

Subtronic’s journey from a starry-eyed teenager captivated by the mysteries of the cosmos to a headline act at the world’s biggest electronic music festivals shows his dedication and unique vision. With TESSERACT, he invites us into a multidimensional universe of his own creation, one that reflects his deep-rooted love for both the heavy hitters and the more nuanced, story-driven aspects of music production.

Subtronics’ latest work is a bold statement in a genre that thrives on innovation. TESSERACT is an invitation to explore the uncharted territories of sound and space, guided by one of the most forward-thinking artists in the electronic music scene today. As Subtronics continues to defy expectations and explore new horizons, Cyclops Army can look forward to a journey that stretches beyond the limits of imagination and into the higher dimensions.
