Pashang 爬上 Sub Neon is in a league of his own, to the point where his music truly defies classification - it's a new, evolving form of musical creativity. Mind-melting, complex bass, perfectly mixed drums, and tons of synthy goodness fill the track, and, much like the world suggested by the track, urges further exploration and a hell of a lot of return trips.

neonhighwaysynth This is a sexy, industrial groove that simultaneously growls and shimmers in your ears. Sub Neon is a master of unique sonic experiences that leave you grinning for days. A track worthy of repeat upon repeat; I guarantee you'll keep discovering something new every time you fire this track up.

Russell Nash Sub Neon hits another home run with his latest offering: a synthetic journey into cybernetic soundscapes. Ethereal pads lay the canvas for masterful, melodic brushstrokes - delivered by an eclectic array of dystopian synth leads. Familiar, yet unique; Darklight is a shining example of an artist at the top of his game.

about

Darklight has two meanings for me.

First it's a portrait.. you could even call it a love letter, to the independent producer community. People often only see the end result of a track. the polished final product. Wat most don#t realise is the sheer volume of hard work that goes into personal and skills development, technical competencies, mixing, mastering, sound design and composition.

Then there's marketing, promotion, branding, networking, social media management, ads and analytics... all of which is underpinned by a 24/7 focus to do their best work every day.

And it's hard.

Most producers quit. All producers find some days harder than others, trying to make space for their passion alongside work, family and life in general. But sheer determination and commitment pushes them on, through the dark days, to find th moment where something clicks. The adrenalin from producing something that expresses that which you intended, perfectly. There's no better feeling.

It's also a self portrait.

Darklight has been a hugely challenging production to complete - 63 tracks,. 11 changes and a lot of clashing sounds in the early stages of development .But I'm really proud of the final product. It encapsulates the sound I want to make. A blend of light ethereal sounds, coupled with dark undertones. A fusion of dark and light. Energy and trepidation.

I'm so happy with the result and I truly hope you enjoy it!
