Three deep cuts of dub techno from Glasgow-based producer Conna Haraway, joined by XENIA REAPER on the lush, elevating A-side "Redirect".

Following his debut solo 12” Spatial Fix on Theory Therapy in March 2025, Shifted narrows in on propulsion and shimmering, patient expanses. Where the debut was dense with texture and atmosphere, this record is more direct, balancing momentum with spacious detail.

"Redirect" emerged from a late Sunday night jam in Glasgow with XENIA REAPER, two laptops synced in Ableton. The soaring synth line is all hers, while Haraway weaves the looping framework of bass, rhythm and subtle shifts. The result is eleven and a half minutes of blissful weightlessness that gradually builds into enveloping pressure and drive.

On the flip, "Detach" and "Duration" channel Haraway’s renewed connection with 4x4 techno, leaning towards a subtler, classic feel. Both tracks are finely detailed, swung and dynamic, equally suited for late night sets or immersive home listening. Elegant, restrained techno with depth, poise and an after-hours energy.
