Jackson Ryland - An Understanding

Jackson Ryland has a few releases to his credit, and now he brings his production skills to Valence for his debut on Ambivalent’s label. The title track resounds to lithe break beats and deep chords, which unfold at a leisurely pace. On “Hit Send”, Ryland ups the pace, and weaves layered dub chords over a sparse, stepping rhythm. The end result is a mesmerising but somewhat moody techno track. “Braids” sees Ryland continue in this vein; journeying deeper into the realms of dubbed out techno, it’s a cavernous affair that puts this emerging US producer in the same category as Mike Parker and Donato Dozzy.
