Labyrinths

A dense thicket of micro-sampled jazz and restless glitch. Darker and more claustrophobic than previous works, it feels like navigating a sonic maze.

It's like a jazz record that got caught in a paper shredder and then taped back together by a mad scientist.

A restless, intellectual curiosity that borders on the claustrophobic.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The aggressive rhythmic stutter on Tussle that feels like a physical confrontation with a drum machine
The way the title track Labyrinths unfolds over five minutes into a dense thicket of melodic confusion
The sudden shift into heavy, ritualistic percussion during the bridge of War Drums
