Micachu - Lips (Remix)

Beast Desire

Rispah, the sophomore album by The Invisible and their first for Ninja Tune, is out now.

The album, "a love letter to grief” following the passing of singer Dave Okumu's mother, is imbued with an inevitable melancholy but defined by a sense of hope. Throughout, the band reveal their rich creativity and musicianship. Echoes run through these songs of African music (including beautifully-woven-in samples of the singers from Okumu's mother's funeral), psalm tones and devotional music, In A Silent Way-era Miles Davis, hints of minimal classical composers such as Steve Reich and the wilder more psychedelic end of hip hop and related electronic musics. 

Nothing is ever included for the sake of it, no attempt is made to patronise or sell the audience short. It's a record brimming with real emotion and restless intelligence, a record to get lost in. 

Rispah is out now in Europe (6/12 in North America) on CD and DL, buy at the Ninjashop (http://bit.ly/M7MTDh), Amazon (http://amzn.to/LD1ivp) and iTunes (http://bit.ly/KYowg2). A vinyl pressing of the album will be released 9 July.

'The Wall'

I am a massive pussy, but don't let that fool you. My music is big and
my sound is loud! I create a power large enough to fill any gaping
chasm of creativity. It's techno, it's grunge, it's dubstep, it's acid,
it's psyche, it experiments. It is what it is, and what it is, is
whatever. 


Inspiration is drawn from quite literally anywhere. The result is a
deep variety of emotion and meaning translated through sound. Wanky,
wanky art spunk you may think, but it's nothing short of honest as
every tune is a true representation of my current feeling at that time.


The ethos is simple, every Roar Terror track is to sound like a "roar
terror" and is often a vehicle used to vent frustration or express
desire. Whether you are happy or sad, alone or together, this sound is
intentionally challenging. I want you to test yourself and make this
your own. Whether you smile and dance, shout and scream or simply shock
out and shed a little tear... I have done it all. I had my soundtrack,
now I hope this is yours.
