Morning Gate is the final collaboration in the series for Old Man Diode and Rick Holland. 

In this closing instalment the duo return to where it all started, featuring the vocal power and glory of Beth Rowley, singing words born in simple conversation with Holland, over the driving skittering production of Old Man Diode. Morning Gate is a powerful elative song, ready to be an anthem for the lighter months, another step into the unknown mist and the beauty ahead of us.

For anyone lucky enough to see the live performances of this project, the raw power of Guy Wampa's drumming will have been a memorable element of the whole. As the live show has influenced the production process of the project over the years, this release comes with two versions, The studio version based around cut up amens and sine sub and the live version with Guy Wampa accompanying Rowley and Diode on stage.

WW Podcast: WW 2.0 Focus - Itoa

A Fleeting Point In Terrifying Beauty is a darkly, expansive album of original, experimental post-rock music, developed and led by acclaimed composer-producer, Jo Wills.

The product of ten years of musical practice, rumination and mental and spiritual honing on the part of its creator Jo Wills aka Point Contact, A Fleeting Point In Terrifying Beauty is both mobile and monumental, a huge analogue sculpture of heavy guitars, electronics, dark Ambient and percussion. In its foreboding but ravishing elemental approach it reminds of the harsh stone brilliance of Ben Frost, the horizon stretch of Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and the ritualistic, dry ice solemnity of Sunn O))). Further than that, however, it evokes a sense of the natural, brutal beauty of Britain, from the ancient landscapes of Somerset to hulking grey power stations. 

Wills’ ambitions echo those of Tangerine Dream’s Edgar Froese in some respects – to convey a sense of the universe in which we are insignificant specks, mere witnesses to its volatile wondrousness, as on ‘Hold Cloud’, with its stony, fetid landscape strafed with pterodactyl-like shrieks of feedback . With one exception, the tracks on A Fleeting Point… are without vocals, dehumanised arrangements of brilliantly wrought slabs of sound. “The music is organic, almost entirely analogue, using feedback and saturation as tools for organic growth, creating sound that is always moving, responding and developing,” says Wills.” The opener ‘1st’, begins with a low, stirring rumble, a moment of pre-creation, before the drums impact and guitars tear up the fabric of nothingness and every pixel of the soundscape is blackened with action.

A Fleeting Point In Terrifying Beauty is, in every sense, a colossal achievement, a sort of imaginary edifice carved in stone and metal, created from gas and liquid, designed to create a bridge between the human imagination and our planetary surroundings, that invites both wonderment and a desire for full immersion.

Sometimes all it takes is one track to get you hooked on an artist, and as soon as we heard @Itoa's rework of Tweet's seminal 'Oops', we wanted to know who he was. 
London's Alex Godoy has just offered up a slamming DJ mix that's packed with dancehall, R&B, jungle and footwork - basically, all the good stuff. There's even that Tweet remix thrown in for good measure.
