loving that china cymbal sound, really sick fills and soundscapes. So intense man!

Absolutely one of the most incredible twists I think I have EVER heard a tune take! Amazing!!!

This tune totally taught me that the violin has a place in electronic music!

Critical Sound No.40 | Ivy Lab & Tsuruda | 26.02.2017

HAVELOCK ‘Chamber’ EP
Release Date: 16th February 2018
Label: 20/20 LDN
Format: Digital
Cat No: 2020LDN008

Having thus far mainly featured as a guest on music released by long time supporters Ivy Lab, the Chamber E.P marks the first solo excursion for 28 year old Nick Jackson a.k.a Havelock; arriving via the same 20/20 LDN imprint that housed all of his collaborative work.

Featuring a span of BPM’s and aesthetics ranging from knocking 808’s to papal-inspired Jungle; the project makes for a relentlessly bleak and unsettling listen - featuring guest appearances from 20/20 mainstay Deft on the track “Chimes”, and Bristol-based instrumental grime producer Hi5Ghost with his remix of “Graphics”.

Born and bred in London, Havelock has been quietly honing his production for almost a decade, branching out from his initial explorations in minimal drum and bass into territory closer in complexion to noise-scene abstractions and alt-hip hop.

Having cut his teeth DJing in clubs and bars during his stints in Amsterdam and Leeds, he went on to found the Buried Audio record label, responsible for releasing music from acts who would go on to become celebrated actors in the bass music landscape. Sitting in the same lane as a small cohort of pioneering outfits such as Darkestral & Exit Records, Buried audio went onto release some of the earliest works from artists such as June Miller (Ram Records) & Nick Modern (Metalheadz/Tempa)

It was only after wrapping up Buried Audio and returning to London that the Havelock alias was born; his focus turned to producing music that encapsulated an increasingly far-reaching taste in obscure underground electronica. Drawing on influences from ambient, metal and abstract hip hop, his sound is loosely engineered by design and paints bleak landscapes with a tangible rawness and innocence.

Tracklist:
1. Graphics
2. Chamber
3. Chimes (with Deft)
4. Fiction
5. Graphics (Hi5Ghost Remix)
