The Breakdown
Since his early days at Chain Reaction, K. Soublis (Fluxion) has carved his own unique style, combining elements of dub, ambient, techno, score, textural, and even jazz elements, all glued together with his distinct production aesthetic.
Haze is a broad selection of pieces that was recorded between 2023-2024. The music is moving from more slow cyclic compositional pieces on Life Motif, Nexus, Desiderium, to ambient dub pieces, on Magenta and Touch, on to more euphoric and uplifting ones on Footsteps, Berlin and What Tommorow Brings, reflecting on artist’s need to tell stories.
Check out: Berlin from the album.
As a whole Haze showcases the artist’s versatility on moving and combining differentgenders with his own distinct crafted sound, bringing a bold always fresh unique view, making the album an indulging and intriguing listening experience as a whole. Fluxion has managed to constantly adding to his sound through the years always evolving and Haze is a testament of his restless nature and the artist’s need to move towards more uncharted territories without alienating the listener.
Verdict: Best described as Dub Techno, the album delivers a moody minimal vibe that’s wonderfully chilled and atmospheric. The experience flows from stripped back soundscapes to pure dynamic groovers. Fluxion (Chain Reaction, K. Soublis) has the skills to combine all the right elements to capture pure tranquility through warm sounds and clean rolling percussion that build a deep sonic experience. What is striking here is his ability to create arrangements that resonate on an emotional level through their well orchestrated melodies and tone. A solid addition to his expanding body of work. This is late night session perfection.
