Grad_U

Greyscale is coming in hot for 2024! Our first full-length album of the year comes from none other than our amazing leader Grad_U! 'Sustain' features 8 separate mostly ambient renditions that take you through what to us, sound like field recordings from another planet. These magical pieces are sparse, eerie, beautiful, and really take you to an otherworldly place. Grad_U's producing techniques are really coming into their own here. Challenging some of the best full-length releases ever to do it in the history of ambient dub, Sustain is sure to be in your top albums of 2024 and beyond! 

'Sustain 1' makes you feel as though you are being transported to another realm. Or perhaps, an alien transmission being sent from far, far away. Part 3 is a bit more serious and machine-like while the tension that builds is palpable. In stark contrast, part 4 & 6 both render out breathtaking melodic passages that have you feeling that you uncovered some of mankind's deepest secrets. These are equally beautiful, somber yet majestic and emotionally moving. Part 7 gives you a suspicion of climbing with a dangerous trajectory while the last part, concludes the album with wonderment, complete euphoria and completeness.

'Sustain' is a landmark album in the ambient dub genre. To date, no other dub album has been able to capture the sounds and emotions of a faraway place quite like this one. An album that will leave you in complete awe. We are very excited that 'Sustain' will be released on vinyl in limited copies as well as on CD and digital.
