about

Subtle's debut album on Lex is a great introduction to this West-coast band composed of electronic and live drums, electric cello, samplers, guitars, wind instruments, synths and Doseone’s sharp, free-flowing vocals. Acoustic instrumentation veers from gentle scene-setting to full-on tracks like The Long Vain Of The Law.

Though the band is made up of 6 musicians, all tracks on this album were written by Doseone and Jel, so there's a similarity to their output as Themselves and cLOUDEAD, however these themes are expressed with far more epic instrumentation here.

"In 'The Book of Sand', Borges imagined a book with an infinite number of constantly rearranging pages. The old metaphysician always dreamt of impossible libraries containing the sum total of language, or points in space that enclosed everything in the universe simultaneously. If he were alive today, I like to think he'd find a musical facsimile of his coveted Aleph in Doseone's bottomless oeuvre." Pitchfork (seriously...)

"The older I get / The more life starts to make sense / And the less I care." Somehow we have created a musical infrastructure where a brilliant musician like doseone can create his magnum opus and somehow it remains totally unnoticed and ignored in music media. This is a dazzling, complex and ambitious piece of work that demands a lot of time and attention but totally pays off. The kind of work that you can only really make when you're 20+ years in the business and stopped caring too much. Benjamin van Vliet
