The anthemic ‘Sandstone’ is Nathan’s homage to early 90s Orbital and UK techno, which were the biggest influences on his formative music-writing years. With huge waves of bass and a wide-eyed emotive rush, he perfectly encapsulates the 90s techno/trance apex, but brings it bang up-to-date with his trademark sonic wizardry.
French musician Irène Drésel transforms ‘Vectra’ into an epic and expansive dark trance banger, while Afrodeutsche AKA Henrietta Smith-Rolla strips ‘Cry Me A Blizzard’ right back to its chords, adding her own achingly beautiful vocals to create a haunting choral ambient artwork.
Nathan provides his own live studio recording of ‘Torch Song’, which melds choppy beat juggling with gorgeously glistening synths.
