The Pieces EP showcases Wraz's versatility across five tracks that blend dubstep with orchestral influences, techno rhythms, and psychedelic sound design.
'Pieces' opens with a cinematic, classical-inspired intro that gradually builds into a dark and evolving bass-heavy journey.
'Tech' follows with a fusion of 4x4 techno and dubstep grooves-minimal yet impactful on a sound system.
'Lurch' brings relentless analog bass pressure and Wraz's signature raw energy, already proven to do serious damage in live sets.
'The Crypt' rounds out the EP with a more introspective feel, featuring shifting synths and hypnotic arpeggios that create a deep, trippy atmosphere.
This release marks a major milestone for the Canadian producer, celebrating his debut on DEEP MEDi.

"DUBTERNAL" is an ode to the healing power of instruments.
An ode to human touch in an ever-increasing artificial world.
An ode to that young punk with a guitar on his back, heading to rehearsal space, reminding him that it's always worth pursuing creativity in all forms and shapes."

For us, dubstep has always been more than music; it's creative freedom to express emotions and to connect with a global family. Paradox, Absurd, Doppelganger, and Zeitgeist are bilingual reflections of identity, contradiction, and culture - resonating across languages and borders. Thank you all for being part of our journey releasing on DEEP MEDi after 9 years collaborating!
