Chicago’s Jesse Briata (aka Lockbox) returns to Primordial Void with a new single, “Dream Detective.” The latest offering from the producer’s forthcoming album Spiritual Malware pairs his signature hyperkinetic drum programming with glowing synth pads and stuttering vocal samples to dazzling effect. Inspired by Briata’s native Colorado, the track moves away from the gothic tones of last year’s Neo Druid and embraces the lively spirit of a genre he calls “Rocky Mountain techno.” Its accompanying video, made with visual programming language TouchDesigner, is a colorful collage of webcam footage, 3D renderings, and vintage CGI novelties ripped from YouTube.
