DJからの信頼も厚いダブテクノプロデューサー GRAD_U による筆舌に尽くしがたいとてもパーソナルな新作がニューリリース。

今年の初めに GRAD_U こと ALEKSANDR MARTINKEVIC は36歳という若さで癌と診断されたという、アルバム制作にあたり非常に深く繊細な状況を前提として持つ本作。

想像しがたいショックを受けたことは明白ですが、彼の人間性のすばらしさをうかがえるのは、憂慮する以外にも多くの学びがあり、人生におけるシンプルなものへの感謝の気持ちや、音楽制作における新たな高いレベルのインスピレーションを発見している点にあります。

研究、治療、そしてエレクトロニックミュージックシーンでより多くの人にこの病気について伝えるために、改善できることに焦点を当てたいという考えのもとつくられた本作は厳かな雰囲気をまとい身体を浄化させるようなアトモスフェリック・ダブアンビエント。穏やかなオープニングからより緊張感のある後半まで、正直な気持ちが核心を突く全8曲からなるエモーショナルな作品となっております!!

この新しいアルバムの収益の一部は、彼の故郷であるリトアニアの国立がん研究所に寄付される予定。

Greyscale's most personal release and perhaps the most important for label owner grad_u aka Aleksandr Martinkevic. Earlier this year, Alex was diagnosed with cancer. Certainly a horrible thing to hear and there has definitely been some low moments in certain stages of the journey. At just 36 years old, many of us are shocked that such a young person can develop cancer. After some research he found out that younger and younger people are randomly getting cancer studies show. An alarming trend to learn about. However, there has also been a lot of other learning and different new levels of appreciation for the simple things in life as a new higher level of inspiration in making music has manifested. And this new release encapsulates that. Alex has also felt a duty to make things better for others. Focusing on what can be improved as he wants to highlight research, treatment and the overall communication of this disease to more people in the electronic music scene. Part of the proceeds from this new album will be donated to the National Cancer Institute in his homeland of Lithuania. Alex wants everyone to know that catching these signs early and getting regular checkups are your best chance at beating cancer. Thankfully Alex did this also and his treatments have gone well. Alex plans still stay steadfast with his label and his life. Simplifying things with the love from his family and friends, focusing on his hobbies along with making sure he makes his health his #1 personal priority.

The name for this full length release is titled 'T2NO'. grad_u's most introspective work yet features 8 emotional tracks overall. The honesty expressed in this album is blunt and to the point. These tracks take you on an audio journey thru grad_u as he expresses his feelings thru the entire process in each stage. Beginning with two wonderful ambient tracks named 'Genetic Mutation' & 'Carcinogen'. In the opener, Chords rain over you as a beautiful ambient melody peeks out underneath it followed by a more stark and hazy field of interference. From the gentle opener to the more tension filled follower, the personal journey of grad_u is developing before your ears. The b-side of 'Neoplasm' is a bit more somber but also has a ray of light in it. Introspective as it can get, this is a true journey through an uncertain future. 'MRI scan' needs no explanation....

The second half of the album begins the understanding of what grad_u was going thru. 'Malignant Transformation' gives off that feeling of the human body working thru the science. Fight or flight becomes the theme for this track. 'Adenocarcinoma' almost gives off the sound of cells rebuilding themselves. Sci-fi meets real life in this epic battle. 'Resection' continues this scientific sounding reflection on the body healing with sounds of movement and time. As if the body is working itself out. Lastly and triumphantly comes the closing track 'Waking up to a New
Life'....

The emotional journey of this album isn't for the faint of heart. It leaves nothing to the imagination. It works thru all the emotions that can come with such and life changing event like having cancer. We want to thank grad_u for sharing his story with us. This story can happen to anyone...
