Preceded by a reputation as this decade’s leading innovator of dub techno x D&B hybrids, Carrier takes his
debut Modern Love bow as an opportunity to fully lean into the dubwise fundamentals that link his variegated
but tightly themed work as Carrier.

And who better to grasp the brief than Kingston-via-Berlin producer and vocalist Gavsborg, whose run of
productions for Equiknoxx and remixes for everyone from Busy Signal to Thom Yorke have more recently
given way to an uber distinctive and screwed vocal style, here poised dread moody and dead sexy in the echo
chamber.

A-side ‘The Fan Dance’ is a pure masterclass in minimalist and hard hitting style & pattern, harnessing
uncannily intimate vox in a super wide stereo field webbed with flint struck steppers hi-hats, speaker-
massaging subs and illusory 3D spectres unveiled in drily skeletal form on a B-side dub that better reveals its
whirring, under-the-hood mechanics recalling earliest Burial via latter T++.

It’s one of Carrier’s definitive works of this current, formative phase, paving way for a debut album coming
later this year on Modern Love and a premiere of his Rhythm Immortal project with Riyo Nemeth at Berlin
Atonal ’25.
