 | | Description: | Pioneers of New Zealand electronica, duo Pitch Black present their sixth studio album, 'Third Light'. Their two-decade career of fusing different musical styles is in full effect across the eight track release. Dub, downbeat, techno, drum'n'bass and cinematic ambience are all ingredients in an echo-drenched odyssey that moves the heart and mind and body, as Pitch Black's distinctive sonic signature of deep analogue dub combines with beats ranging from slinky to slamming and vocals spanning enigmatic to emphatic As the album shifts between dance floor and brain food, it reflects on a world similarly in transition between two states. On the one hand, the planet faces depleting resources and a looming climate emergency; on the other, capitalism and consumerism are marching blindly onward. As a result of this conundrum, there are many contemplative moments on the album, most notably with the world's extinction echoing in the ambience of the final track 'Did You Get the Message'. Despite prevaricating between pessimism and optimism, 'Third Light' is far from a depressing record. After all, Pitch Black are far from technological luddites, and just as their futuristic beats strive for a progressive future, so they look to a more harmonious tomorrow.'A Doubtful Sound' was recorded live at the Sebright Arms, London during the Dance Test Dummies session, Oct 2018, 'One Ton Skank' comes courtesy of Winston Campbell, 'The Lake Within' originally composed for the film ROTO by Louise Potiki Bryant and Paddy Free.
Written and mixed in Piha, Aotearoa, Dub mixed in The Loft, East London.
