Electronic music artist Subtronics has announced his third album, Tesseract, to be released next Friday, February 16th, 2024 on Cyclops Recordings. The album release date coincides with the start of Subtronics’ 16-date US album tour.

As the third album after his debut Fractals (2022) and follow-up remix album Antifractals (2023), its tracklist will be revealed leading up to the release.

Jesse Kardon of Subtronics shares:

Sonically speaking, I believe this wholly represents my personality and sound as best as I can thus far, with the things I have learned over the years, in conjunction with what I have recently been inspired by. TESSERACT is a proper sequel to my first album FRACTALS and in the same sense, I once again aimed to demonstrate my range in style, sound, and emotion. Some songs are meant for the dancefloor, some are meant for the car, and some are meant to serenade you to sleep.

I am trying as best I can to create an immersive alternative reality with a magical yet sci-fi-esque world of energy and feeling across the entire spectrum. I hope it leaves a long-lasting impact on the listener and the dance music community as a whole. It is truly something I can look back on in 30 years and still be proud of because I know that this is the sound I am truly passionate about, and I really gave it my everything. This album is my second child, more than two years in the making, and I poured everything I could into it.

Drawing inspiration from the “tesseract,” a geometric configuration known in fourth-dimensional geometry as a 16-cell cube, Subtronics’ interest in quantum physics and high-dimensional theory is explored through the boundaries of sound design and genre fluidity.

Imagery for the album reflects traversing the cosmos, which extends to innovative stage design and visual elements for the TESSERACT tour.

Kicking off on the album release date (February 16) as part of a two-night run at The Armory in Minneapolis, the corresponding TESSERACT Tour will include special guest Wooli plus support from HEDEX, Saka, Jon Casey, Distinct Motive, Automhate, SuperAve., and Skellytn.

Fans can also experience Subtronics in Boston, New York, Pittsburgh, Madison, Atlanta, Chesterfield, Columbus, Independence, Newport, Nashville, Greensboro and Buffalo.

Soon after, SUBTRONICS’ CYCLOPS ROCKS IV takes over Red Rocks Amphitheatre where Subtronics will be joined by special guests Delta Heavy, Level Up, Samplifire, Automhate, Beastboi., Sanzu and Inaktiv on Thursday, May 23 and Tape B, Ternion Sound, Grabbitz, The Caracal Project and Zen Selektra on Friday, May 24.
