Wow what a gem this is. Gets after it so much  after the second break.

October's mix seems to have just emerged with some kind of focus on form. To my ear, the tracks in here all have a bit of structure to them, something slightly angular. There is a geometry to these grooves, they feel like a sturdy frame against which a fabric of texture and melody can wave and morph.
