A true bass music visionary, G Jones has proven countless times over that he is among the greatest at pushing new, inventive sounds to unparalleled heights. From The Ineffable Truth to the more recent ‘Dark Artifact‘ and ‘Drift (Acid Mix),’ the creative genius has propelled his quest to stardom with pieces that break all barriers of conformity, seeing immense success dominating the festival circuit this year. With the latter two aforementioned tracks released as singles from his Tangential Zones EP that is out today, we can confidently say that G Jones’ follow up to The Ineffable Truth boasts an otherworldly level of ingenuity.
‘Immortal Light’ kicks thing off in high gear, bringing listeners to a hyper-realistic universe of bass as an acid-inspired introduction quickly evolves into a relentless offering of mesmerizing frequencies. Perhaps the closest thing G Jones has ever made to dubstep, the opening track is sure to sweep you off your feet. ‘Dark Artifact’ follows, keeping the intensity from the first track alive through its puzzling plucks and synths. Acting as a bridge to the latter half of the project, ‘Dream Fatigue’ sees G Jones unleash his inner trap demons to deliver a minimally wonky piece that possesses an incredibly natural flow. ‘See Right Through’ comes next, echoing parallels from ‘That Look In Your Eye’ with those distinct vocal samples without escaping any sense of uniqueness. A five-minute opus, ‘See Right Through’ is the embodiment of G Jones at his finest, combining hypnotizing melodies with euphoric sections of bass that perfectly balance each other from start to finish. As Tangential Zones comes to a close with ‘Drift (Acid Mix),’ listeners are reminded of the timeless journey of G Jones’ musical offerings.
It’s too bad Tangential Zones is out now because it will likely miss many “Best Of 2019” lists, but we can assure you that it belongs at the top. Don’t miss it below.
