Bleep

Central Processing Unit sees the return of Jensen Interceptor & Assembler Code to the imprint with a wicked four tracker that lands hot on the heels of the duo's 'Hyper Reality' ‎and 'Vapour Waves' EPs for Cultivated Electronics & Mechatronica respectively. Kinematics finds the pair pushing the signature CPU sound into a deep freeze vat of bubbling acid and pressurised electro.

Abstract Model comes off like the Elecktroids in a bad mood, all gurgling b-lines and sharp-spined drums being whipped into a fierce wave, sending shocks across the deep waters, while the title track takes a turn toward more dreamy atmospheres before shooting downward towards a proper tightly wound drum roll. Extraction matches Caustic Window territories for intensity, letting the mechanised beats click into place with a ferociousness bang, before VR Escort brings the 12" to a close with some space station signal FX, capping off easily one the very best CPUs of 2018.
