Mystical, wide-eyed hyper-exotica flavours from Mother Gaia herself. Two mind-bending chants of dub-filtered tribalism sprawl out of the 7” plate; the Yin side, PIPE, bounces left to right with a hazy sway and morphing, lick-up vocals. Evolving across the Yang lies LABYRINTH, a psychoactive concoction of distant, ambient landscapes and mechanical, wood-polished drumming paying homage to the sun dial.

I loved the electro/new wave-y Grim Lusk EP of a few years back so was taken aback by this as it's more like a beat/scratch tape. Cracking stuff again though. Like a travelogue through a murky autumn Glasgow day with the last remnants of summer peeking through. Or 'Madlib Does Dundee'. deadshotkeen
