Rod Modell is the king of sophisticated dub techno soundscapes. His 2017 album Dawn, Dusk & Darkness is the epitome of that and now finally gets a vinyl release having previously only being available on CD. It’s a fusion of ambient, drone, field recordings and synth work that suspend you in a lo-fi and grainy landscape on a rainy Autumn day. In fact, the actual sound of rain seeps into more than one track, as do muffled voices from round the corner of a deserted underground station. It all adds up to an album that makes for perfect background music but is so detailed that it will work just as well when foregrounded.
