sonic-attack Ancients EP. Ambient in all its glory

Ancient

Abu Simbel

01 - Abu Simbel

when you build a thing to elevate yourself and it ends up being a place to burrow deep below.

when you do a thing to do a thing, but it ends up being another thing.

when you decide not to do a thing because you already know what will happen.

when nothing and then nothing.

2021 project

Almost a full year after "Bangers and Mash" it seems Steve Hadfield is finally ready to serve up dessert...

"Rhubarb and Custard" takes the recipe for last years chaotic EP and decides to lump even more spoonfuls of havoc into the mix.

This latest release from the Leeds based producer cranks up the tempo in more ways than one. Drill n bass, industrial and braindance ethos all collide into each other for one huge maelstrom of percussion heavy electronics.

"Cinema Roll" is the calm before the storm, luring you into a false sense of security with its spacey bleeps and unthreatening tones before diverting into an outro of abrasive noise that put a marker down for the rest of the EP. From here on in it gets wild. Gone are the gleeful elements from the "Bangers and Mash" release, replaced with much darker, almost mad scientist type, tones. "Palate Cleanser" and "Petits 4/4's" both offer some intermittent respite and a slightly more playful mood before we return each time to full throttle madness, dense low ends and frenzied percussive assaults.

Sometimes we all go a little crazy. "Rhubarb and Custard" is a fresh batch of bedlam from the warped side of Steve Hadfield.

My new album "Human Condition" was released on Cue Dot last month.

"It’s an album that poses more questions than answers. An album exploring what goes beyond human. Do we transcend? Do we just waste away? Does it matter?

What is important is the present and how we can be better for ourselves and others around us in every aspect of our lives. This album is a representation of the six stages of the human condition. Birth, growth, emotion, aspiration, conflict and mortality. An exploration of the essentials of existence and how we can be more than the sum of our parts."
