Sacrifices

Prefuse 73

A masterfully restrained collection of glitchy, downtempo beats. It trades the frantic energy of earlier works for a deep, tape-saturated urban melancholy.

May 25, 2018 · Lex Records

Find on Amazon

A sophisticated, rain-slicked urban solitude that feels both lonely and deeply comforting.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the percussion on 'Without Anyone' feels like it's dissolving into a pool of warm reverb.
The subtle nod to William Basinski on 'Basinskitarian' where the loops feel like they are slowly eroding.
The sudden, sharp rhythmic clarity that emerges from the ambient fog halfway through 'The World Is Bigger'.
