LSR 016EP
|
Barcelona-based Rob Clouth (Vaetxh) presents "Deep Field," which debuted on Max Cooper's Boiler Room and appeared again on his Essential Mix. It's tactile and threatening, with disorienting glitches weaved into the 4/4 structure. Kowton (Livity Sound) inverts "Deep Field" into a gelatinous mass, adding jackhammering drums to create a spacious and stuttering lesson in tension and release. Leeds band Vessels follow their 2015 album Dilate with a housier take on "Deep Field," drawing out Clouth's propulsive percussion with lush melodicism. Deep Field is the third release in Leisure System's Gridlock series, melding the freaky and functional for modern dancefloors.

LSR 011EP
|
Rob Clouth's Clockwork Atom EP is a triumph of emotional composition and twisted beats. Recalling Jon Hopkins at his fiercest and Autechre at their most melodic, Clouth has put together something special for peak-time and morning-afters alike, three timeless tracks with bass to massage your ears and melodies to warm your heart. "Clockwork Atom" balances thick sub-bass and a player piano line recurring in waves of bliss. "Islands of Glass" begins with richly harmonic textures before jerking the listener across hilly, alien terrain. "The Descent" is slower but no less bedazzling, like a clone coming off an assembly line and being blinded by the sun.
