After a one-year and a half hiatus, the unidentified human machine @lowkhey is back on Comic Sans Records with a new killer album.

At the end of 2020, the first and acclaimed opus "Never Trust A Cyborg" introduced their fresh addition to the deviant dancehall movement through 10 electric tracks, showcasing a rich panel of four-to-the-floor dub infused downtempo cuts.

Walking in the footsteps of this early project but in a steadily offbeat way, Low Khey's new statement "Ten Effective Ways To Achieve Immortality" sounds like a major software update. It reveals exciting mutations of their sonic expressions across deadly clever integrations of trap, drill, post club and soundtrack elements. The result is richer and more complex yet very precise and readable owing to Low Khey's most destructive weapon : their lethal ability in sound design.

Once again the artificial anthropoid chooses to deliver their message through 10 murky tracks juggling between downtempo club cuts, epic choirs, cutting-edge trap and pre-apocalyptic soundscapes. This album sees them team up with humans for the first time on 3 tracks : the neck breaking post-trap cut ""Good Like It Should"" featuring Berlin-based producer and singer Catnapp, the drill inspired ambient track ""Nostalgia"" made in collaboration with Enae and finally ""Citral"", the electrifying chiaroscuro acoustic metal outro cosigned by guitarist Stencil d'A.

Those collaborations seal the deal with humanity. Perched on a faraway planet, Low Khey's artificial intelligence reached its final form and looks at Earth with benevolence. Through a puzzling cyber noir storytelling they teach us how to overtake our inevitable programmed death. The machine learning process is complete, it's now time for Human learning.

Padre Himalaya returns with a four track EP from East Man that explores his own Hi Tek take on Grime, stripping everything down to the raw, bare essentials. Opening the EP is Fight For A Cause, a rough a fuzzy sub bass driven exercise in beat science that draws as much upon Dancehall as it does Grime. The second track, Selector, is a straight up DJ tool, utilising an alternating 32 bar pattern interspersed with splashes of pirate radio chatter. The flip side opens with the storming Bandit Country. The subdued intro lulling you into a false sense of security before the beats and bass are unleashed in full attack mode, the relentless onslaught pausing only briefly midway for you to catch your breath before continuing on it's devastating path. The closing track, Darkage, is an ominous brooding affair that those of you familiar with East Man's sets will know well. A real head nodding roller, it's definitely one for the technical DJ's.

------------
After two tasty records released on Renascence, Realitycheck is back with a four-sided third opus. If the precision of technoïd drumtracks and fierce skills for dreamy pads still infuse in this new EP, there is a straight turn towards british spheres happening here. Ravy breakbeats on « xternal », bass-music percussive grooves on « Big Sur » or skinned garage architecture on « Dem », it's a travel through the many faces of this legacy. Landing in space with « Heavy Mantra », a wise futuristic dub bomb for alien minds, this new record delivered by our beloved Realitycheck sets up even further his hability to craft weapons of choice.
