Carl Finlow keeps on keeping on. As the world changes around him,
the veteran producer continues to do what he does best - craft
top-quality electro tunes which invoke the sound's Drexciyan
heyday, yet carry themselves with an assurance that is all of
Finlow's own. Finlow remains a prolific producer more than a
quarter of a century on from his emergence. Still averaging
several records a year across a variety of aliases, recent times
have seen Finlow forge particularly strong links with the Central
Processing Unit label. Now, after a run of EPs for the Sheffield
imprint which began with 2018's 'Projections', Finlow's Silicon
Scally project offers up CPU's first drop of 2022 in the form of
the 'Field Lines' LP. Silicon Scally productions have long been
marked out by how they combine piston-precise beat programming
with more textured synth play. 'Field Lines' runs with this
formula to deliver some of Finlow's most atmospheric material to
date. At once shadowy and expansive, listening to 'Field Lines' is
the aural equivalent of taking a night-time drive around some
futuristic metropolis. The beats cruise sleekly here. Many of
these burbling machine-funk numbers hover at mid-tempo, the crisp
clip of their drum programming given shape and depth by all sorts
of percussive tones fizzing around at the fringes of the mix. Even
when 'Field Lines' seems to set its sights on the club - the
Bunker Records-aping 'Amino', for instance, or the dystopian
whizz-bang of 'Static Fire' - the tracks here strut sturdily
rather than giving in to full-on freakouts. However, from this
sturdy base, Finlow moves outwards. Working with tones which range
from rapid-fire machine-gun bass to keening, dawn chorus keyboard
pads, Finlow leads us through the futurescape with the expertise
of a seasoned guide. Cuts like 'Submerged' and 'Yield' are
brilliantly cinematic, blooming from those reliable drum pulses
into miniature masterpieces of nocturnal electronics. Elsewhere on
'Field Lines' there is a mechanical majesty to 'Inhibitor' and
'Altered Domain' which invokes the brave new worlds that Kraftwerk
repeatedly conjured in their heyday. Central Processing Unit's
first release of 2022 is 'Field Lines', an LP of electro-funk
explorations from Carl Finlow's Silicon Scally project which will
thrill regardless of whether it's experienced through headphones
or out on the dancefloor.
