"this is a journey into sound - a journey which along the way will bring to you new colour, new dimension, new value." ('the world of stereo action', decca records)

there is one trend in substanz-t's musical development and that is its uniqueness. that is, substanz-t does not have just one sound. the chilling ambience of tripped experiences was followed by the hip-hop
influenced electric opium; the moods may change but the vibe never will. four years have passed, and that vibe is still within "beyond e".substanz-t has traded electric opium's roughness for hypnotic, almost
melancholic sentiments. this album is a perfect merger of downtempo beats, post-psychedelic electronica, driving electric bass pulses and soulful vocals. synth lines, sequences and striking effects are kept
together by varied rhythms - which expertly balance acoustic and electronic instrumentation. all the while, a manipulated, manipulating voice calls you...

listening to substanz-t's music is like being sucked into a black hole - you never know what is waiting beyond... new colour. new dimension. new value.
