Bristol techno, noise and hardcore supremo's SCALPING have announced details of their highly anticipated debut album “Void”.

Due out 29th April, the record comes on the heels of an extremely exciting 2021 for the band, which saw them play to sold-out crowds at the Roundhouse twice in two weeks - both on tour with Squarepusher and at Pitchfork Festival London - as well as selling out their own headline date at Peckham Audio, and releasing two widely acclaimed EPs titled “FLOOD” and “FLOOD Remixed”, the latter of which featured treatments from producers Hodge, Azu Tiwaline, object blue, AQXDM and Laurel Halo, and Scottish instrumental rock legends Mogwai.

SCALPING  @scalpingmusic share a new single and video ‘Remain In Stasis’ featuring Grove @theyisgrove, taken from the band’s highly anticipated debut album ‘Void’. The video, recorded on location in the iconic @fabric club, is a visceral and raucous live performance which captivates the energy and brutality of the track.
 
‘Remain in Stasis’ features fast-rising artist Grove; the Bristol-based vocalist, producer and self-professed metalhead whose commanding presence sets the track alight.  Grove's 2021 release ‘Spice’ launched them into prominence with high praise from Crack Magazine, Metal Magazine, Mixmag, Resident Advisor, Pan-African Music, Hunger and more. 

“Me and SCALPING met at Mickey Zogg's in Bristol since our @noodsradio radio shows are one after the other. I've admired their artistry for time and was gassed to be asked to work on a tune together. After a few pints and good conversation on the concept of memory, we got to work warping and playing with their track demo. I landed on lyrically exploring the duality of memory. It has the power to be beautiful/terrifying, reminiscent/ traumatising and all the shades of mundane in between. This is a cathartic exercise of that.  Grove

"It's very exciting to share our first music with vocals. This was our first time collaborating musically with someone outside of the band, and working with Grove was amazing. The energy they brought to the process and the way they evolved the song was incredibly refreshing; especially after working on our music remotely through various lockdowns for the best part of two years. Although Remain in Stasis is musically the most straightforward track on the album, it took us the longest to finish. We finished the mix while in the van on the way to London to master the album."

SCALPING - Flashforward

SCALPING share ‘Tether’, the latest single from their debut album ‘Void’. The track features Oakland-based vocalist and experimenter DÆMON, whose kinetic, aggressive, and demonic futurist emcee vocals take centre stage and elevate the chugging industrial instrumental.

DÆMON aka Jahsiri Asabi-Shakir uses lyricism as a means to express a full spectrum of emotions, abstract ideas, and social commentary. DÆMON draws from his personal experience for inspiration in a dissociative, non-committal manner, illustrating vivid imagery through storytelling and an array of literary devices.


“Tether was the first song that came together for the album back before the first lockdown and really felt like the start of the next chapter of the band.

Almost immediately we knew we wanted to get vocals on this track and we were tearing our hair out trying to find vocalists who felt appropriate. Between hearing DÆMON's ‘DXE’ EP on Infinite Machine and his lyrics often centered around technology it seemed like an obvious fit.

After months of back and forth across continents and various versions of demos being spliced together, we eventually landed on a version of the vocals which showcased so many of DÆMON's vocal styles but still left space for the track to breathe. The final vocals were recorded remotely in a studio in Paris.

Ben Frost - Rare Decay

What better way to mark reaching the halfway point of our ten-part R.I.P. 50WEAPONS series, than with a work by its own creators. #045 sees Shed's orthodox techno "Dark Planet" get twisted into five minutes of broken beats and hypnotically heavy bass – thanks to the doing of label bosses and Pawlowitz's longtime friends, Modeselektor. Two names that haven't shared a release since the very first Modeselektion.

50WEAPONS045 drops on 13 November. Set your digital and vinyl pre-orders down now.

February 2016 sees the 3rd anniversary of Houndstooth, and the label mark this with their 50th release. ‘Tessellations’ is a compilation of brand new, exclusive tracks from each of the 14 artists to release on the label.

The release serves to simultaneously trace common threads and highlight tensions within such a stylistically expansive roster.

Presented on a double CD and digitally, ‘Tessellations’ charts a path from Guy Andrews and Aïsha Devi’s widescreen soundscapes and the offbeat electronic pop of 18+ and Snow Ghosts, through the analogue 4/4 pulse of Marquis Hawkes and Shift Work, to Akkord and Special Request’s visceral re-imagining of hardcore.

Tracks from Call Super, Throwing Snow and Second Storey occupy those hard-to-define – yet often most exciting – spaces in between, gluing together the selection along with contributions from House of Black Lanterns, Soft as Snow and _Unsubscribe_.
