Fracture Presents: Slow Astro, Vol. 3 & 4
APHAC04
Limited Cassette & Digi & T-shirt

Fracture’s Slow Astro concept returns for another instalment of slow edits from the Astrophonica back catalogue. Reducing the tempo right down to 97bpm for that extra baggy vibe and recorded live on a Mackie mixing desk with added dub siren and FX - an overnight sleeper train journey to the slower depths of music from Sully, Client_03, Nikki Nair, Damian’s Ghost and more.

Here's what Fracture has to say about the Slow Astro project.

“I have always been intrigued by playing audio back at different speeds. Be it speeding up breakbeats to make Jungle or slowing down pop music to make drawn out nostalgic atmospheres. Some of my first experiments with pitch were with my brother. We’d record ourselves onto cassette and use the hi speed dubbing feature to change the pitch of our voices. If you held the play button down half way it would cause the tape to play back at different speeds - mangling the audio. Over the past year I became fascinated with playing on 7 inch records on 33. New rhythms, grooves and textures appear when you change the pitch of audio. It can totally alter the emotional quality of a piece of music you thought you knew so well - creating new artefacts with a familiar yet dreamlike quality. I started to wonder what the Astrophonica catalogue would sound like slowed down. So I made ‘Slow Astro’. Shout out DJ Screw…”

RUPTURE W/ MANTRA & PANKA 010425

Fearless Dread - 14 April 2025

London-born producer Ed "Tim Reaper" Alloh has spearheaded a renaissance of breakbeats from behind the decks and the desk. A web developer by day until recently, Reaper spent years in the margins of the drum & bass scene. Cultivating a style that bridges old-school ferocity and forward-thinking experimentation, his tracks are immediately recognizable. They are familiar in their foundation of classic chopped Amen breaks and booming basslines, yet futuristic in their sideways lurches and sonic juxtapositions.

Tim Reaper On NTS Radio - 7th May 2025

Fracture - 28 May 2025

When the deep house vibe of NNPark Music and dub techno wash of Daverage J. Normal collide, this is what you get. ---> a deep, dubby, house(y), and atmospheric journey which lets you choose to float or soar.
