G of D welcomes back to the catalogue its co-founder Sabla, back to his spiritual home, with a collaborative ep alongside one of the most revered and transcendental artists out there, Donato Dozzy.Crono is a collection of 4 tracks made in the span of 2019-2022, following each other in chronological order of creation.
In an era where information runs fast, and just one year ago feels like ages ago, the music inside this ep comfortably sits in a time bubble, absorbing old and new influences and melting them organically.Dozzy’s signature enchanting synth sequences, created with iconic synthesizers Buchla and Ems Synthi, steadily flow in and out with digital sounds and editing by Sabla.
The core of this collaboration is the exploration of these steady flows, which is a peculiarity easily found in both artists’ works. The 4 Flusso flow like water, like thoughts, like energy, lifting up with no specific intention if not the simple act of moving forward.

Pearson Sound returns to Hessle Audio with a varied new EP over a range of tempos. Lead track 'Red Sky' combines a euphoric arpeggio and a growling bassline, with tough breakbeat foundations setting the pulse. Equally as effective deployed during peak time rushes as it is soundtracking a sunrise. 'Sinkhole' pairs crisp swung drums with an earworm of a bassline, while dubbed out echoes ping around the stereo field. On the flipside, 'Freefall' features eerie samples from Delia Derbyshire and Barry Bermange's 1960s 'Dreams' BBC radio broadcast, surrounded with droning pads and punchy 909s to hypnotic effect. Finally 'Around in Circles', a 160bpm excursion echoing some of Pearson Sound's earlier 'Autonomic' work for Darkestral, brings the EP to a satisfying close with its yearning melodies and percussive drive.
