Due out Friday 26/03, the complete and utter mystery that is Cloud Lord presents their debut release on one of the most consistent, forward-thinking imprints in electronic music: Kid Drama’s CNVX. A hotbed of diverse talent and a melting pot of electronica-etched magic (often autonomic in nature), CNVX never stop pushing boundaries and norms, and that certainly doesn’t stop here. Although we used the word debut, we’re sure it’s anything but, due to the sheer quality and starlit refinement of the tracks on show, and the fact CNVX have a sneaky penchant for consistently unleashing untamed records from shadowed, hidden aliases - whatever their gameplan, it’s always staggeringly good. “New artist? Alias? Collab?” - it’s all up to your imagination.

The follow-up to Oliver Yorke’s beautifully crafted EP on the label (of which we hosted the brilliant Heron Flow-collab ‘Camino’), Cloud Lord breaks new, juxtaposed ground on 3 standout tracks, all of which offer something different, thriving in their individual and grouped uniqueness. Honestly, we never swear in these write-ups (never really any need to) but 'Heady One’ & ‘Neek’ are two of the most fucking barbaric tunes we’ve heard so far in 2021 - they flow and scope with malicious intent, yet never lose that tasteful CNVX rhythm and familial bounce - fully earning their place and keep here. We’ve had the pleasure of hosting lead cut ‘Teeth Wisdom’, and as someone who’s just had two wisdom teeth out in November, I have to say this is a real source of equilibrium for me! Combining the heaving grit and devastating wonk of those aforementioned cleavers, the title cut combines downtempo swing with Cloud Lord’s commitment to forceful, driving humdingers, and it works out absolutely perfectly.
