Description.
‘Awake’ is a soundtrack for roaming around vast city landscapes between late night and early morning. A lone wolf observes the scenery and watches over people, their heads low, on the path home to sleep. Inspired by 1980’s movies, drone and video game soundtracks, Rob Orme aka submerse returns with an update to his signature sound.
‘Awake’ comes out worldwide on limited vinyl (including download code) & limited edition CD including a bonus track via flau records in Japan.

Quotes.
Lovely soundscapes
Brilliant!
Submerse draws these together in a complex but measured take on the abstract hip-hop beat.
It’s really good!
Brilliant new EP! Some of his best work yet!
Lovely as always submerse!
Excellent stuff!
Beautiful, as i’d always expect from Submerse and PMC. Intrigued by the amount of hum/static/fuzz on the record, really good use of noise without being noisy, if that makes sense.
Very interesting, heavy stuff.
Beautiful, drowsy and evocative as always, submerse delivers another intriguing work.
Submerse is the UK born Tokyo based beatsmith making some of the most interesting and complex music around. Rob Orme aka Submerse has a distinct style wanders through beats, instrumental hip hop, and broken electronica and his latest album, Awake shows of the producers skills in fine style.
On this EP, Submerse’s slight change in focus manages to yield plenty of interesting results.
