Zomby – Devils

Yes, everyone’s favourite tight fade-sporting Twitter provocateur has released a new track, for free. Short and relentless, it’s jungle techno that sounds like it spurted from some toxic slipstream in the hardcore continuum.

Sam Willis – Foxglissandro

One half of Allez Allez and another half of Walls, Sam Willis is striking out on his own with his debut LP Winterval, released via Half Machine. By all means, use its new age pads a blissed-out arpeggios to repair the tear in your psychic hull caused by the track above.

Kuhrye-oo is an offshoot of Gobble Gobble, here helmed solo by the Edmonton group’s Calvin McElroy. Epic.

Bloksberg – Tækno

Their Soundcloud teaser text: But FUCK that. Bloksberg plays TÆKNO. Either you’re cool and get it or you don’t. It doesn’t matter much anyway. BLOKSBERG rules, OK? Okay.
