Album Notes & Community Reviews

Locked strictly to a uniform tempo of 150 BPM, the London-based producer investigates the precise rhythmic intersections between club music and acoustic instrumentation. The album features a vast array of collaborators including Laurel Halo, Batu, and classical cellist Lucy Railton, carefully chopping their performances into incredibly tight, pointillist electronic grooves. It stands as a brilliant exercise in structural minimalism and sonic clarity.
