After the resounding success of the instrumental version of ‘Black Ice,’ Subtronics and REZZ tap ‘Black Out Days’ creators Phantogram to elevate the track with powerful, yet deeply haunting vocals. The follow up to Subtronics’ remix of ‘Black Out Days,’ Phantogram continues to show their crossover-ability translating in the dance world. ‘Black Ice’ was premiered for the first time live, in front of 30,000 fans at Beyond Wonderland music festival in Southern California on March 23, 2024. Listen here.
Drawing inspiration from the “tesseract,” a geometric marvel known in fourth-dimensional geometry as a 16-cell cube, Subtronics’ passion for quantum physics and high-dimensional theory is explored through the boundaries of sound design and genre fluidity, much like traversing the cosmos. This is evident throughout the album’s audio-visual experience, while continuing to channel his fascination into an innovative stage design, accompanied by breathtaking visual elements for the TESSERACT tour.
