\nWith production handled entirely by Plutonic Lab, and cuts by DJ 2Buck, masterful Sydney based MC, Dialectrix presents The Cold Light of Day. The third LP since signing with Obese Records in 2008, lead single \u2018New Generation\u2019 heralded the album\u2019s release almost a year ago, and has anomalously enjoyed month after month of high rotation on triple j in anticipation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A vernacular acrobat, Dialectrix combines rhythmic precision and variety, with content spawned from cathartic necessity. The album showcases his renowned technical skill and polish, reinforcing his reputation as one of the best in the business.The triad of skilled musicians set the release apart. All meticulous, slaves to perfection; the trio have found a remarkable wavelength based around shared standards. The result: a transcendent album, that pushes boundaries of genre convention with purpose and conscientiousness.<\/p>\n

\u201cSonically The Cold Light of Day sits alone as being musically diverse, while being rigorously grounded in the settings of traditional Hip Hop.\u201d \u2013Dialectrix
\nStill faithful to their roots, Plutonic Lab and Dialectrix have built on the foundations of traditional hip hop, revolutionising the genre by incorporating live instrumentation and electronic elements. DJ 2Buck\u2019s selection of premium cuts always consummately timed, give the album character and scope. Vocal guests include the legendary Def Wish, P-Smurf (Big Village), Chip Fu, Momo (Diafrix), and a verse from the dexterous 2Buck. The LP focuses on the many varied themes explored by Dialectrix, each complimented by Plutonic Lab\u2019s custom-made soundtrack.<\/p>\n

\u201cI keep working with Pluto because we make music like a band. There\u2019s a synergy and chemistry we get that you just can\u2019t buy or fabricate and I\u2019d consider him one of my best friends.\u201c \u2013 Dialectrix<\/p>\n

In the track \u2018Fire in the Blood\u2019, there is no ignoring Dialectrix\u2019s raw emotion as he wrestles with nature vs. nurture. He relays his deepest fear; passing alcoholism and violence onto his son. Written in an extremely tumultuous period of his life, he has labelled \u2018Fire in the Blood\u2019 \u201cthe most raw and honest track I\u2019ve ever made\u201d. Plutonic sets a melancholy scene with haunting vocals, and angry beats. \u2018Take Flight\u2019 is a laid-back, vibing number inspired by Dialectrix\u2019s travels around Australia. His lyrics reflect on the beauty he has encountered in the places he\u2019s been, and people he\u2019s met, but also the inherent guilt he feels about enjoying a place which was stolen from its original people. With lounge piano, subtle strings and synth nuances, the track cruises.<\/p>\n

Opening track \u2018Shadow in the Light\u2019, is surmised as one of the artist\u2019s personal favourites. Plutonic Lab brings his explosive percussion skills to the forefront and fuses them with syncopated synth sounds, creating a kind of sonic exclamation mark. Second single and immediate standout \u2018Go\u2019 flawlessly combines bold indie rock guitar with pulsing beats, propelling Dialectrix\u2019s impeccable flow forward. The theme for the track is the inescapable presence of \u2018time\u2019, racing the clock his flow is exacting and relentless.<\/p>\n

The Cold Light of Day is a quality display of true skill and passion. It is safe to say the future of hip hop is safe in the hands of Dialectrix, Plutonic Lab and DJ 2Buck.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d say our music ultimately is thinking music. It\u2019s designed to make someone contemplate what\u2019s around them, and judge things critically. It\u2019s meant to do nothing more than talk about one man\u2019s experience in hope of making someone else feel better.\u201d \u2013 Dialectrix<\/p>\n
