#risingsun #vinyl #indiemusic
Over the past decade, Rising Sun has emerged as a leading figure in the realm of deep, dubby, and cinematic-leaning house and techno. With a keen focus on emotive melodies and atmospheric soundscapes, Rising Sun has consistently delivered a sound that is distinctly his own, captivating audiences through a multitude of aliases and imprints.
Through labels such as Fauxpas, Freund Der Familie, and his own numerous imprints—Reality Used To Be A Friend Of Mine, Kristofferson Kristofferson, and Beautiful Things Don’t Ask For Attention—Rising Sun has carved out a niche for himself, exploring various sonic territories under different guises. From The Ambientist to Rising Sun Psyche, each persona offers a unique perspective on his musical vision.
In his latest release for Echocord, titled “The Eternal,” Rising Sun returns under his eponymous moniker, offering six alternate versions that showcase his mastery of emotive melodies and atmospheric textures. Each track on the album is a journey into darkened realms, merging expansive dub echoes, swelling subs, and tension-building strings to create a mesmerizing sonic landscape.
From the muted drums and fluttering stabs of “Eternal 1” to the ethereal hypnotism of “Eternal 3,” Rising Sun demonstrates his ability to evoke a range of emotions through his music. “Eternal 4” unfolds with subtle intricacy, while “Eternal 5” strips things back to a gritty, atmospheric feel. The album culminates with “Eternal 6,” a murky, multilayered composition that envelops listeners in its immersive soundscapes.
With “The Eternal,” Rising Sun reaffirms his status as a purveyor of finely crafted electronic music, pushing the boundaries of house and techno while staying true to his emotive and cinematic aesthetic. Fans of deep, dubby, and atmospheric music won’t want to miss this captivating release. Available now for purchase and streaming on Echocord.
