The latest in Field Records' run of essential vinyl pressings revisits Stephen Hitchell's 2009 masterpiece under his Variant alias The Setting Sun. As part of Echospace and also celebrated for his productions as Intrusion and Soultek Hitchell is considered a leading light in dub techno with the versatility in his sound to range from rhythmic physical pulses to purely tonal abyssal drone. His work as Variant which debuted with The Setting Sun capitalises on this scope to deliver a compelling ambient-with-teeth set richly deserving of a proper vinyl pressing.
