Some albums arrive quietly and never quite leave. Khotin's New Tab — first released in 2017 and now back in its originally intended format — is precisely that kind of record. Pressed on a pink transparent shell C48 cassette via the Edmonton producer's own Khotin Industries imprint, this repress restores one of ambient music's most drifting and restorative modern classics to the format it was always meant to inhabit.
Warm, unhurried and deeply absorbing, New Tab moves through hazy loops, soft-focus textures and gently flickering rhythms that feel less composed than discovered — music that exists at the threshold between waking and sleep, between focus and drift. Eight years on from its original release, it remains an essential touchstone for anyone serious about the quieter, more contemplative end of electronic music. The cassette format suits it perfectly — intimate, tactile and entirely in keeping with the mood of the music itself.
