Cursewords - Back 2 The Mud

My man Drew is back with his project Cursewords and a new album "Back 2 The Mud". Cursewords started back in 2011 as a vessel into the witch-house scene, before gradually morphing over the years into a more electronic outlet that channeled Drew's eclectic and expanding taste. As the album's title suggests, "Back 2 The Mud" is a return to his grassroots - a witch-house album powered by influences gained through years of experience producing in other genres. While most of the tracks here ebb toward the witchy realm, glitchy IDM deconstructions ("Pondering" or "RU&UD"), hard-kick breakbeats, and jungle breaks ("2 GR8", "Final Boss") also take the reins of the record, turning it into an Arkham asylum for the dancefloor. It is, however, the ultimate occult banger "Spirit Candle" that stole my heart, taking me back to 2011 once again.

Ourobonic Plague - G.A.: Minus One: Currents

Ourobonic Plague dropped "Currents" a few months back, as a prequel to "G.A.: Zero: Crystallisation". We're still in dark and gloomy territory, but now charged with faster tempos that point toward industrial witch-house, deconstructed glitch breaks, and mutated techno. "Saucerer" is my jam.

For Lunar Dust - I Love To Fly // video

"

The Streetwise sample about flying has a soft spot in my heart thanks to How To Dress Well who used it in his song "Say My Name Or Say Whatever". Thirteen years later, For Lunar Dust takes it to the next level, inviting the listener to zone out into his liminal world centerd around the quote - now stretched it into an incredible ambient piece called "I Love To Fly". I'm floored, so good.
