Hans T is an Estonian-born producer now based in Australia, the country he’s come to call home. His new single, “Tensions,” arrives September 10th and pushes his sound into more experimental territory, pulling from the influence of Sub Focus and Kanine alongside the wider Australian drum and bass scene he’s immersed himself in.
Tensions
“Tensions” wastes no time getting going, moving quickly from its opening into a tight, compact build. A metallic, driving bassline runs through the whole track, set against leads that manage to feel heavy and euphoric at once. The way the song came together mirrors Hans’s broader philosophy as a producer, one built on freedom, honesty, and staying open to wherever an idea wants to go. He didn’t box the track in with a time limit or a strict set of rules, choosing instead to experiment and follow whatever felt natural, and the result stands as one of his own favorites among everything he’s made. Fourteen years into DJing, Hans points to his military background as the thing that taught him the discipline to keep pushing at his craft, and his motivation stays rooted in something personal: music has helped carry him through hard moments in his own life, and he hopes “Tensions” can do the same for someone else listening.
Final Thoughts
“Tensions” is a confident step into more experimental ground for Hans T, built on a driving, high-energy bassline and a genuinely personal sense of purpose behind it. It arrives on all major platforms September 10th. Follow Hans T on Facebook and Instagram.
