Phoar, what a scorcher! It’s a hot box in the studio and hot on the sounds as well. Kicking off with a remarkable track from Matmos, who use the sounds of the Mud-Dauber Wasp to create a thumping electronic banger. We move through various degrees of ferociousness, with Nihiloxica, Gazelle Twin, and Lila Tirando a Violeta and Sin Maldita bringing hefty fire. Elsewhere we’re treated to a new percussive experiment from Hihats in Trees, there’s an opus from Tenerife’s Gaf y la Estrella de la Muerte, multiple tastes of Polish experimentalism and more. You can listen to the first six tracks for free.
