I’ve been a fan of this UK producer since immensely enjoying 2019s “Primed For Primal,” and was eagerly awaiting a full length such as this. It’s beautiful and distinctly Murlo. Their work is very melodic and rhythmically diverse. Free flowing passages are given as much (if not more) thought and time than the tight grooves they become. It’s glitchy and full of bangers but even in those moments the palette of sounds and the feeling overall is very organic, lush, and airy in an ambient/new age way.
Anybody who enjoys the more orchestral or abstract kind of footwork or garage will enjoy this immensely, as will anybody who likes instrumental UK acid music electronic or otherwise. Check out the first track below- the uptempo and upbeat Carapace- and go listen too/buy to the record on Bandcamp.
