Chris.Su’s Solaris Theme still holds its own as one of the most memorable tracks from the Subtitles back catalogue. Fusing liquid sensibilities with slightly darker neurofunk elements and making excellent use of samples from Soderbergh’s film, the track is as infectious as it is understated. The build up is hauntingly beautiful, Natasha McElhone’s voice echoing through the mix – “Don’t you love me anymore?” – and when the drop hits, soaring synths combine with a bassline with just enough teeth to produce a weighty roller imbued with a kind of muted, melancholic euphoria. Classic!
