LEFT HANDER / SHOOK UP by MARTYN

3024’s milestone 10th release arrives in November with 2 brand new Martyn tracks!‘Lefthander’ clatters in on heavily filtered drums, flickering high hats & garbled radio transmissions before a carousel synth melody breaks through the percussive murk accompanied by a roaming bass line that prioritises restraint over bludgeon. Dubbed out ambience rapidly takes root in the gaps between concrete snares & dissonant brass stabs as bass and synths elevate themselves for one last round of call & response sparring before dissolving back into barely audible dialogue. ‘Shook Up’ on the flip has relentless kicks and bass akin to an Atari2600 playing Berghain looms over the clouded horizon - pastic 808 tendrils are underpinned by soaring synth strings as proceedings draw to a juddering close.
