Tool

Hurtling at great pace, the inaugural SOSOSO release from label owner Metrist is a dedication to speed.

Forova is three tracks flung into existence that roll and yaw. Pitching between function and turmoil from the 2003 epoch riff-work of ‘Nathanielismo’, the possessed pace of ‘Oerchar’ and snake charmer motif’d ‘GMFGR’…Forova sits itself down in the chrome-plated uncanny valley of clubland.

Artwork and art direction from Josh Costar, mastered by Beau at Ten Eighty Seven.

Forova out 24th June

01. Nothing Stays the Same
02. New Frontier

Loose Records presents its Loose Limited Series, which focuses on abstract electronic music that pushes boundaries without losing sight of the dance floor.

This release is by Convoke, and it features two techno tracks that combine industrial breakbeats with ambient pads to create immersive grooves that have a dystopian vibe.

Convoke has been making electronic music since the '90s and throughout that time has embraced multiple different styles. Based in Brighton (UK), he has produced music under a variety of different aliases, and these tracks are an amalgamation of his decades long career.

"New Frontier," has expansive pads stretched over a throbbing bassline and crunching breakbeats.

Uman Yazar & Nawl -- Sunnizen [VFO014]

Release date (vinyl & digital format): 24th of June 2016

Inigo Kennedy has been with Token since the beginning. With a strong existing catalog stretching back to the 90s, Kennedy produced the first Token release from a place of confidence, with an EP of bold and dark, yet playful and seriously storming techno tracks. Since then he has been consistent in delivering a succession of releases that are always surprising, but instantly recognisable as fitting with his own polished sonic identity. This impressive body of work includes the full-length LP Vaudeville, in which he explored the many facets of his abilities as a producer, from atmospheric heights of ambience to murky and claustrophobic pacing grooves.

Now for Token 62, his double A-side NGC EP continues with a theme originating from the final track on Vaudeville, delving into the aesthetics of the interstellar clouds of Cygnus and Draco. The EP as a whole is swelling, melodic and subtle, with the AA-side NGC6543 named after the ‘Cat’s Eye’ nebula, taking its time with warm crescendos and crisp splashes of percussion to activate a meridian body response. NGC6826 (Blinking Eye) pulsates with a broken beat, the rhythm just pausing for a classic melancholic refrain before returning to force for its finale.
