TNGHT - Acrylics (Warp)



'Acrylics' is the new single from TNGHT, the collab between SLL faves and future music pioneers Hudson Mohawke and Lunice.

Like a haunting nursery rhyme, the track is threaded around the delicate, wharped chimes of a mobile from a child's cot, the distorted minor melody building into an massive dancefloor tour de force.

Typical of Hud Mo and Lunice output, offbeat bassdrums dominate before leading into a horn-led ravey stormer, laced with dark vocal snippets and atmospheric FX. It's the kind of old skool-inspired track Liam Howlett could have written in its immensely bold and genre-defining style.

For me, this is the future sound of electronic dance - brave in its approach, flawless in its finish. Cracking.

'Acrylics' is out now on Warp. Head over to Juno and get on the download. | warp.net

Jamie Lidell - You Naked (Remixes) (Warp)




On this latest release from Jamie Lidell's self-titled album, 'You Naked' comes with remix support from Detroit house veteran Jimmy Edgar as well as highly-credited nu skool producers RL Grime & Salva.

Jimmy's interpretation is the one for me, with a typically distinctive, stripped-back style building on his repertoire as a continually fresh, innovative producer. Piercing, distorted percussion, chord-driven grooves and just the right amount of cowbell give the hypnotic vocals plenty of space to breathe, with subtle pads lifting and teasing the listener just short of erupting into an all-out musical assault. A wicked early evening builder.
