Italian duo Hiver present the Spiritual Machines EP, their debut on Obscura due 9th March. ‘Inverted Scale’ brandishes a hypnotic synth lead that swirls into a formidable energy. Title track is a meditative ambient cut immersed in deep waters, whilst ‘Glass Effect’ exposes a similar form with radiant sonic properties. On the B side, Orbe turns the title track into a low slung basement workout, whilst Crossing Avenue’s rework of ‘RJ45’ channels psytrance and rave sentiments. For digital release, two further tracks feature. ‘RJ45’ is a dubby, zoned out roller, followed by ‘Zwicky’, a euphoric trance crescendo on vintage synths.
