A Proton Music regular with his array of powerful original music, Subconscious Tales returns to the label with a 3-track masterstroke in ‘Eternal’. An artist with a unique storytelling ability, Ivars Tiliks has always focused on “compositions that take you to a world of energy, darkness and beauty” with “music for the spirit and body”.
It is with this modus operandi that the Latvian producer has overseen a double century of production credits signed to a plethora of high-profile independent labels that include Balkan Connection, DistroKid and Rimoshee Traxx. Moreover, almost fifty of those credits can be found on Suffused Music with a glorious collection of original and remix material.
Opener, ‘Eternal’ impresses with driving rhythm and whip-cracking kick that evolves into a progressive house gem with its grooved bassline and cascading arpeggio. Waxing and waning with ease, the bassline reaches a powerful crescendo at the mid-point breakdown as it resonates in dynamic fashion. Dropping back into a sumptuous groove in the second half, the track creates a wonderful rhythmic narrative.
The slightly more up-tempo ‘Laniakea’ once again inspires with its club-friendly groove and syncopated bassline sequence. Evolving over an 8-minute timeframe, the bass pattern develops its own melodic characteristics before heavily effected pads provide a moment of melodic intrigue at the breakdown. The result is a highly original and innovative piece.
The final offering sees the ‘Experience’ title track create a glorious symphony of melody that blossoms over nearly 11 minutes of meticulously produced electronic music. A true magnum opus, the track excites with stratified layers of counterpoint melody that all revolve around a central harmony. Spiralling off in different arms synth lines weave a magical path across the track to fashion a dynamic work.
Through his craftsmanship and technique, Subconscious Tales has created another unique musical ‘Experience’ on Proton Music. You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Eternal’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
