Alpha Transmission Sends Out a Powerful Beacon with “Jasmine”

Eddie Richard | May 14, 2021

TRILLVO’s very own Alpha Transmission has made alien contact with the brand new single, “Jasmine.” Brace your standards – this production takes bold steps outside the box and arrives in a headspace all its own.

Dedicated to a friend missing in space and time, Jasmine bears the namesake of a lost connection who was pivotal to the artist’s formation. The tribute to Jazzy is personal but approachable. Brooding synths and voice chops lend to a spacey composition that deconstructs cookie cutter bass music. As emotional as it is stimulating, listeners will need a few plays to soak in these deep layers. A.T. has combined what feels like the passive nostalgia of vaporwave (or even ‘lo-fi beats to study to’ playlists) with the pulsing euphoria of dubstep. The result is a staggering melody that resonates beyond this world.

Keep Alpha Transmission on your list of experimental greats. With crucial remixes/encryptions of tracks by the likes of Yheti, Peekaboo and LSDream, the up-and-comer has already blessed listeners with a crafty means to “peer into your alternative future.” We can’t wait to see this project blossom!
