Roland Tings (aka Rohan Newman) is one of the first names you reel off when you think about Melbourne’s electronic underground club scene. The prolific producer is known primarily for his tingling two hour-spanning live sets as opposed to a tangible body of work, so it’s always a special moment when Tings decides to put out something we can slap on repeat away from the confines of a sweaty dancefloor.
His latest, ‘Floating On A Salt Lake’, is a slow-burning cut that builds with dancing synths and subtle tinkerings. It teases out at an excruciating yet rewardingly slow pace, eventually combusting on itself in the final minutes to take the shape of a strobing deep bass cut, managing to capture glimmers of the essence of a Roland Tings set in seven drawn-out minutes.
