Armed with a bass guitar and drum machine, Subterranean Rain began in 2014 as a loop based solo project coinciding with Jack Dibben's (Ill Winds) return from a three year stint living in Europe.
Subterranean Rain's debut release Corroded Evenness (2017, Chemical Imbalance), would take shape over the following two years by means of close collaboration with Alex Lee (Repairs, Border Menace) on synth, and additional collaboration with Laurence Williams (MOB, Place Holder) on guitar; the results are a mutant form of new wave.
The latest incarnation sees Dibben revert back to a solo project. He takes a departure from the technical restraints of the loop pedal and in doing so transforming the aesthetic they developed by opening it directly up to the world of synthesis and the step sequencer.
