Tamaki Makaurau’s Substax release Linear Shift today, 27 May 2022.
The audio duo’s sophomore album is widescreen and atmospheric, shifting weightless between intensity and whimsical, emotive vocal tracks and sonic instrumental sketches.
Substax are genre bending pioneers of electro soul and breakbeat, renowned both for their downtempo epic downbeat as well as breakbeat influenced club tracks. Linear Shift is exactly that, a linear evolution which sees the proudly alternative indie act widening their musical gamut but also staying true to their focus to produce evocative electronic soul music.
The album has been mastered largely by Metropolis Studios, London (8 tracks) and Nick Farrands of Substax (5 tracks) and features the act’s preference for deep and textured production. The album artwork is designed by Claudia Gunn of Substax.
The act is the audio duo of producer, Nick Farrands and vocalist/producer Claudia Gunn. Gunn is an acclaimed song-writer in her own right releasing via her Little Wild Music label. Linear Shift follows on from Substax singles Space Drift and Red Balloon released in September and October 2021.
The album launch for Linear Shift begins with a retro visualiser video for the downbeat atmospheric electro funk of Computer Seeks Computer, out now, followed by a fully produced video for soul-breaks track Fireside being directed by photographer Robert Trathen.
The album is released on all major streaming and download platforms via Substax distributor DRM NZ.
