In 2019 Brian Cid released his debut album ‘Meteorite Man’ via Balance Music, a stunning ten track affair which served as an immersive musical adventure filled with meaning and purpose. Now he returns with three undeniable tracks, a deep and progressive sound packed with big personality.

‘Field of Plenty’ is built to engage, a subtle track filled with elegant production flourishes. The early introduction of a swelling synth is a teaser of what’s to come. Once it materialises in the breakdown, it’s undeniable: An almost choral-like chamber melody that will induce goosebumps.

On’ Cease the Mind’ layered percussion float on top of a red-warm sub-bass and very precise kick, all conspiring to hypnotise the listener. During the breakdown, the synths wash over you like cosmic waves transmitted from another dimension. This is the work of a master dance music producer, deep techno designed to soothe.

The energy levels are more brooding and confidant on ‘Open Center’. A smooth driving bassline immediately grabs you and lull you into its groove. Once caught, the attention is kept throughout with synths and cleverly placed percussive FX. The melodic keys, however, are the hero, a smart movement lingering long after its last echo.

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Open Center’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
