Brilliant new Kane Ikin LP, moving between moody post-punk atmospheres and streamlined dub techno.

Capping off a vintage year Kane Ikan builds upon his Type and Latency issues with a mini-LP of polluted machine funk that sounds like a gritty instrumental jam between DVA Damas & HTRK. The drum machines call to mind the early 80s shoegaze slowness of classic JAMC, but the absence of vocals pinpoint this as a strictly techno affair, in the vein of Portion Reforms The Supreme Negative.

Time will tell, but this is sure to be a slow burner that is sure to gather much-warranted attention as the cold months roll on.
