Dubstep and D’n’B producer Kontext makes good on the promise of his 12″s for Immerse with an album proper for the Bristolian label. ‘Dissociate’ is a vividly coherent collection, including six brand new tracks of solemn, Russian spirited electronics pressed a track per side for the optimum listening experience. The flurry of excitement over his early tracks is entirely justified for lovers of the darkest and techiest ends of the dubstep electronica spectrum, hatching atmospheric IDM with the electronic dub sphere of Pole and a minimized version of T++ or Martyn’s post-step flex. ‘Dissociate’ is ultimately a great headphone or armchair listen, the detailed production values intended for closer scrutiny, especially on the insectoid scuttle of ‘Clinch’ and the majestically synth-washed ‘Searching For The Transcendental’. But that’s not to negate the finely tuned technoid rhyth(m)otor that keeps his music cruising like a gangsta’s bimmer in the dance. If there was anyone from this end of the dubstep pool we’d expect to turn up an ace album, it’s Kontext and he’s surely proved the point here. Heavyweight darkness. (с) Boomkat
