‘Aching for Sleep’ is the perfect introduction to the music of Low Point High. The track is steeped in lush, hypnagogic aural imagery that will appeal to anyone with an interest in the seminal Warp roster as it traverses it’s five minute runtime. Hazy ambient tones merge with synth-strings and found sounds as the shifting beat pulls everything inexorably forward. The song’s micro and macro call- and- response teases answers, but instead leaves the listener with an uneasy sense of unquenchable longing.

Low Point High - Aching for Sleep

Ein Flimmern zwischen Welten, 
Stille, die drängt, 
Bewegung, die verharrt.

Fragile Texturen, 
Licht fällt in tiefe Schwere, 
bricht den Raum.

Nichts löst sich auf, 
alles bleibt klar verschwommen.

CxC PREMIERE: DJ Ethanol - Originate (QRUK)

James Young steps up for his first release on QRUK with the Nagasaki EP, a dark and driving UKG cut that leans into the moodier edges of Garage and Speedy G. The North Wales-based producer has already made waves with House releases on labels like Smashin Trax and Pogo House, but this new EP sees him pushing into heavier, more dancefloor-focused territory. Nagasaki is packed with chopped-up drums, eerie textures and a tough low-end that hits hard.

On remix duties is Kabo Cana, returning to the label after making a big impression with his debut I DON'T UNDERSTAND. His take on Nagasaki flips the original into a more club-ready, 90s inspired roller full of sub pressure and tight percussion. It's another strong showing from the Manchester-based producer who's quickly becoming an exciting name in the new wave of UKG.

Nagasaki - James Young [QRUK016]

Part of the opening track from my latest ambient album Real Life and How To Avoid It, out on CD, download and streamies.

This track (like most of my music) was improvised live in my studio with most of my synths rather than just the laptop. 
It is another example of me exploring ways of making even more minimal music that is still satisfying.

This is a song about someone falling in love with a hologram. Or maybe about a hologram who falls in love with someone. I dedicate it to Erasmo Carlos, Louise Brooks, and The Flamingos.
