- updated:2025-06-20
Russell Haswell — the electronic techno-experimental monster known for collaborations with Aphex Twin, Gescom, Florian Hecker and Merzbow, and one of the flagship artists of Diagonal Records — thrillingly explores the space between floor-ready music and noise avant-garde. Here comes his first new album for the label in two years, "Deep Time"!!!
Track List
The indominable Russell Haswell returns! He's a restlessly forward-thinking, multi-disciplinary artist, performer and curator who calls Diagonal Records his home. His past collaborators include Aphex Twin, Gescom, Florian Hecker and Merzbrow. "DeepTime" is Russell's latest LP for the label following on from 2023's 'Reality Therapy'. Whilst "Reality Therapy" was an introverted affair, "DeepTime" is brimming with confidence and aimed squarely at the dance floor.
Russell's club friendly turns are resolutelyprogressivist. Whilst being informed by the works of Claude Young and Jeff Mills, his music feels like it was made in another dimension altogether. Title track, "DeepTime", "Unconformity" and "Atropine" all prove the point. It's techno but it's much more besides.
Used = Acid Rain Technology, ADDAC System, ALM/Busy Circuits, Apple, Audiofile Engineering, Beautiful Pieces of Outdated Technology, Cwejman, Epoch Modular, FANCYYYYY Synthesis, Future Sound Systems, MOTU, Neutrik, SnazzyFX, Super Synthesis, Tip-Top Audio, Waldorf ...
Produced & Recorded 2022-2024 in Glasgow.

Where 2023's "Reality Therapy" was an introspective work, "Deep Time" is an unruly, ambitious techno-experimental set that pushes into dance music territory with full-on floor sounds. 8 tracks in total. (Original Japanese text by COMPUMA)
