@Waltonmcr heads into the 'Abyss' on his new @Tectonic-recordings EP.

The Manchester-based producer is no stranger to @DJ-Pinch's revered label, what with projects like his 'Black Lotus' LP or his more recent 'Inside' EP released via the Bristol imprint.

Elsewhere, Walton's delivered a slew of intriguing grime via dubstep via dark techno mutations on Kaizen, Keysound, Hi Tek Sounds and more of late, but it makes total sense to have him back on Tectonic during the label's celebratory 15th birthday year.

Our pick from 'Abyss', 'Smashed Crabs', is a certified, signed and sealed screwface inducer (much like the rest of the EP, tbh) that we can't wait to hear played out thanks to Walton's wizardry when it comes to pairing early noughties grime flavour with sounds of the future.

Tectonic will release 'Abyss' on March 6 2020, pre-order below.

DJ and producer RAVL delivers a break and melancholic universe, combining the warmth of analog synthesizers and icy percussions in a meticulously sharp sound design, infused with textured Hard Drum, UK Garage, and rumbling Techno.

His productions mirror his influences, rooted in a Bass Music intertwined with Anglo-Saxon Techno, branching into IDM and Jungle, sometimes tinted with shamanic South American Club culture, thus showcasing a unique, hybrid, and resolutely modern style.

As a prolific producer, he releases on remarkable labels such as YUKU, [re]sources, Bad Tips, and Nü Kvlture, on which the highly acclaimed "Outrenoir" was released. It has been played worldwide, including at Blumitsu's Boiler Room at Boomtown Fair and by Jamie XX at Making Time.

Collaborating with artists like Tim Karbon, Leese, HI ROSIE, and many other prominent figures in the French Bass Music scene, RAVL rightfully earns his place within this new generation, representing the Phocaean city on pioneering line-ups such as Metaphore Collectif, Animals Industry, Basses Fréquences, POLAAR, and even at Paris Electronic Week.
