Jacques Greene (Philippe Aubin-Dionne) and Nosaj Thing (Jason Chung) have long danced around similar aesthetic spaces—ambient textures, hushed vulnerability, beatwise experiments but with Verses GT, they formalize a union into something distinct. The self-titled album is their first full-length under the Verses GT alias and arrives as an immersive, introspective electronic record that seeks not just to be heard, but felt. 

From opener “Fragment,” there’s a sense of deliberate tension: fragile ambient pads, spacey reverbs, and the feeling of something unfolding in slow motion. As the record progresses, tracks like Unknown and Your Light (ft. George Riley) introduce more rhythmic momentum—UK garage-tinged breakbeats, gently pulsing synths—that still feel intimate rather than club-maxxed. 

The vocal features (George Riley, KUČKA, TYSON) are rare moments of warmth, anchoring the album’s more ethereal passages. “Forever” (with KUČKA) is a bold moment—it risks pulling too far into strident territory, but even its sharper edges are redeemed by strong atmospheric work around it. 

What is especially compelling is their process: the album was mostly recorded in-person across cities like London, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Paris and Montréal, with a commitment to reduction—letting texture, space, and minimal elements breathe. They trade production roles, allow ambient imperfections, and emphasize trust in one another’s intuitions. 

Verses GT isn’t always about overt hooks or flashy drops; it favors moods, slow builds, and intimate dynamics. Some listeners may wish it pushed harder in certain pocketed moments, but as a whole it succeeds as a cohesive, emotionally resonant statement. For fans of both artists, and anyone drawn to electronic music that balances atmosphere with subtle rhythm, this is a strong addition.
