Grade A synthline wooze from Hyperdub's female contingent Ikonika.
'Millie' occupies the A-side with a slow swinging dubstep riddim built
from comfortingly discordant layers of synth pressure alleviated by a
discreet but perfectly formed music box melody hidden somewhere in the
upper echelons and rising Detroit style chord progressions. 'Direct' on
the flip opens with what sounds like a treated accordian line before
spilling over into spools of bleeps and trickling synthlines darting in
and out of the riddim, it's only at the half way point when a wickedly
P-Funked synthline pops through does the whole track coalesce into quite a
beautiful cut and roll off to the horizon on a well cushioned bass. This
is pretty wild stuff that fans of Joker/Rustie should be getting a sniff
on.
