Eerie melodies and polyrhythmic drum'n'bass conjure warped landscapes on this deranged, introspective slab of electronic dance music. The latest from Etch, the Brighton, UK-based DJ who has released on the likes of Sneaker Social Club and Soundman Chronicles, arriving via Munich's ILIAN TAPE.

Hardcore leftfield drum'n'bass electronics, filtered through original ideas and a skewed, multi-angled perspective, giving birth to a dance music all his own. From A1 "Liz's Track" (sample1), where feedback, screw and drone are sublimated into ambient, to the tense, ebb-and-flow tech house of A2 "Asami" (sample2), these are low-slung dance tracks with wide-ranging appeal. Etch at his very best is "Jacks Design" (sample3), pulling drum'n'bass together with an eerie, uniquely polyrhythmic sensibility — a real highlight of this album for us. You can preview from the tracklist too. Don't miss it!! (Original Japanese text by hamon)
