Elusive maestro SUBFICTION unleashes new single ‘we_glitch’

Versatile Dutch producer SUBFICTION unveiled a new single, ‘we_glitch’, on April 26th, 2024 via On Track / SUBFICTION. ‘we_glitch’, which premiered via Electronic Groove, is an appetiser for his forthcoming EP of the same name, slated for release in May 2024. Since the project’s inception in 2022, the year in which he notably played an official after-show for Ross From Friends, the elusive SUBFICTION has been making waves in the music industry with no signs of slowing down. He has toured the Netherlands alongside De Likt and legendary travelling festival The Popronde as 3voor12 talent, and performed at festivals like Grasnapolsky, Motel Mozaïque and Eendracht Festival, as well as many underground clubs. In 2023, SUBFICTION hosted a festival stage together with Irish DJ/producer Kessler’s new label Elicit Records. Unstoppable, in January 2024 the veil-draped maestro participated in Eurosonic Noorderslag and was awarded the number 12 of best acts by 3voor12.

SUBFICTION is a veiled artist and guide of absorbing audiovisual worlds. Otherwise, little else is known of him – his biography is shrouded in mystery. All that is known is that he “was born with a veil, a synthesiser and a drum computer. It’s all [he’s] ever known”. Within Rotterdam, SUBFICTION seemed to appear and disappear, often unannounced, at festivals and underground parties over the past two years.  SUBFICTION is known for his electrifying live performances accompanied by flashy, futuristic visualizers made through a bridge between Ableton and reactive colourful image shaders, analogue instruments and live performance. Together with choreographer Dalton Jansen and director Vincent Boy Kars, he created a short film to accompany his debut EP, SOLO, which interweaves dance, cinema and music, and was released during the International Film Festival Rotterdam 2023. Regardless of his elusive identity, he captivates audiences from festivals to underground raves with his infectious concoction of melancholic breakbeats, IDM and narrative-driven house and hip-hop. While his debut EP SOLO puts an emphasis on the more serious and cinematic part of SUBFICTION, his second EP weird glitches ‘n’ other shakes represents the more irreverent, club-minded side of this mysterious artist. Influenced by experimental electronic luminaries like Aphex Twin and Overmono, his sound is sure to be enjoyed by fans of the aforementioned as well as those of Four Tet, Bicep and Fred Again

‘we_glitch’ is an epic piece of Future Garage music, with SUBFICTION deftly drawing influence from UK warehouse styles. A distorted, gritty breakbeat carries a contrastingly delicate synth that weaves around the groove. Dreamy, atmospheric chords are occasionally punctuated by glitchy, pitched-up vocals, creating a hypnotic listen that is impossible not to move to.
