- updated:2025-04-10
A somehow nostalgic sound that breathes with the history of early-2000s electronic music and the UK dance scene. Built around period-flavored dubstep, garage and breaks, docked with his signature weightless, airy design! A new album from Manchester underground figure LEO, who has been active as a member of both this label 〈YOUTH〉 and 〈SHOTTA TAPES〉.
Track List
LEO is a sound designer and former member of the leftfield outpost 〈YOUTH〉—home to the likes of GEORGIA and KASSEM MOSSE—who remains active in the Manchester underground community. Here he delivers a full album built on nostalgic club sounds and electronic music! From the ambient breaks of "Banal" (sample1) to the tribal reggaeton of "Jade Floors" (sample2), the production evokes the early 2000s while never feeling dated. Rich, expressive work that conjures space by leaving gaps between the sounds. (Original Japanese text by Akie)
