### **Slighter presents ‘The Futile Engine’ album via Brutal Resonance and video for ‘Pulling Me Under’ feat. Craig Joseph Huxtable**

_“A deep sound design that spans subterranean dubby techno and modern bass sounds…
a subtle but totally unmistakable insistence, building intensity gradually and only
releasing it as the song fades back into the shadows”_ ~ **I Die: You Die**

_“When you hear Slighter, the room expands. The soundscapes Allrich creates are 
larger than life and the production is unquestionably smooth” _~ **QRO Magazine**

_“Slick, motorik, infectious and polished… Fans of Meat Beat Manifesto, Fluke, Future
Sound of London and Leftfield should take note here”_ ~ **Amplify Music Magazine**

_“A creeping sludgy sex appeal… A hungry snarling club growl for your next playlist”_
~ **Sounds and Shadows**

Slighter is the solo moniker of [**Colin C.**](https://ddec1-0-en-ctp.trendmicro.com/wis/clicktime/v1/query?url=https%3a%2f%2flinktr.ee%2fslighterofficial&umid=a42e27d1-0bc3-439f-a3d4-8b304e9e380e&auth=65a620fa4b6e2edf0405a6ed61dc7465231096cd-437f76c09af471e6a74acd99bfa6233cba891567),
who has been fine-tuning the future of electronic music since kickstarting his music
in Mid City Los Angeles in the early 2000s. Creating from a unique vantage point,
he was involved in collaborations for various **Metropolis Records** releases and**
Cleopatra Records **compilations, in addition to Slighter releases via his own Confusion
Inc. imprint.

Mixed and mastered at** **[**The Cell Studio**](https://ddec1-0-en-ctp.trendmicro.com/wis/clicktime/v1/query?url=http%3a%2f%2fwww.thecellstudio.com&umid=a42e27d1-0bc3-439f-a3d4-8b304e9e380e&auth=65a620fa4b6e2edf0405a6ed61dc7465231096cd-b38cb13c1c5e2917783b6f6f128bd0608db73295),
through the sonic experimentation and innovation entailed in recording this album,
Slighter continues to provide new fuel for the counterculture..

“This record was a lot of fun to make with my friends. I’m always enjoying collaborating
on Slighter albums and, this time, it felt best to leave the majority of the vocal
work to some great voices from Craig to Steven and Tara, Yvette, and Anastasia. 
It has been an experimental but cohesive experience, the classic cinematic vibes
I’m known for hitting with faster Techno and killer bass lines across a 10 track
narrative,” says **Colin C.**

“I think I have a pretty unique way of working outside of genres, but my work still
gives off this sort of expansive cinematic vibe, which also retaining a darker mood
that gets me associated with various dark sub-culture genres. The themes I often
explore has me adopting an ‘Electronic Death Music’ umbrella for the music I make–
a play on words, with the music I make being the antithesis of popular EDM”.
