Alicia invites Albin - 04 September 2025

Following releases from Lurka and Keplrr, GRACE has something more introspective in store. The label's fourth outing is a tasty collaboration between Bristol's @georg-i and Lisbon-based lyricist @olderbrotherolderbrother. Their 'Warm Skin' EP is a journey through slick, hi-tek bass and trip-hop injected with gritty vocal poetry.

Both artists are hitting their stride. Since 2021, georg-i has gone from strength to strength, his razor-sharp slappers appearing on YCO, FELT, and more recently, as the inaugural release on CCL's Subglow. Meanwhile, Older Brother's otherworldly vocals have featured on Timedance, Metrist's SOSOSO, and now a full release with the iconic imprint Numbers. 

On this EP, a soundworld emerges that recalls the dark intimacy of Massive Attack's Mezzanine and the beat science of Samurai Music. These two artists' combined talent makes for beautiful, moody listening - a third space between wonder and cynicism.

Enter the mythology of NYC artist James K - her sound, equally organic and electronic, is a combination of odd dreams, hybridizing enchanted samples, ripped, broken and morphed rhythms, and vocals, both incomprehensible and appealing.

PBA – Masaya Kato

An aural portrait of the West Midlands, using local music. A mix for a juxtaposed region, moving from the pastoral & folkloric to the modular & industrial, via local covert radio transmissions. Reflecting the literal roots of where I grew up: a place with equal parts rural calm and mechanical edge.
