Globular, the project of Bristol-based producer Morison Bennett, is a cornerstone of the modern psydub and psychill scenes. Emerging in the early 2010s, Bennett's sound is characterized by a high-fidelity approach to the dub aesthetic, blending the rhythmic foundations of King Tubby with the psychedelic soundscapes of Shpongle and Ott.
His work is notable for its 'liquid' quality, where basslines feel malleable and melodic elements shimmer with digital clarity. Over a decade of releases, Globular has evolved from bedroom-produced EPs to complex, multi-layered albums that frequently top Bandcamp electronic charts. Bennett often explores themes of holism, biology, and cosmic interconnectedness, reflected in both his album titles and the philosophical spoken-word snippets woven into his tracks. Critically, he is praised for maintaining a sense of playfulness and 'British' eccentricity within a genre that can sometimes lean too heavily into self-serious mysticism. His influence is felt across the festival circuit, particularly at events focused on transformational and psychedelic arts.
