Fading Trails – Sublunar 25

Sublunar brings Cirkle back into orbit with an EP that shows just how effortlessly he can bend techno into his own shape. He kicks things off with ‘Silent Rage,’ a fierce, hypnotic roller packed with earworm vocals and enough propulsion to light up any peak-time floor. ‘Beaten II’ follows like a dark sequel you want to get lost in – big, brooding and atmospheric in all the right ways. ‘Machina’ tightens the screws by stripping things down to a heavy, minimal groove that hits with surgical precision. The title track lifts off into dreamier territory, drifting through emotional, widescreen textures that feel built for 4 am introspection. It’s moody and endlessly playable.
