While the three have worked together in the past, this is their first start to finish collaboration and the result is the stunning and distinctive debut ‘This Time I’ll Be of Use’. Simultaneously mystical and stark, sombre and danceable, the project grapples with hard-wired truths and imagines alternate realities with better futures. These lucid wanderings amongst the street fires sound like a cross between the ghost of progressive electronic music of the 70s with its innovative eccentricities and acrobatic wordplay delivered with sharp resolve. While surrealist in its metaphors and abstraction, it doesn’t betray a present awareness. Reflecting on Black struggle in the pandemic ridden and democracy faltering landscape of 2020, each member arrived from a synchronistic space and the recording process ended up being largely intuitive. On ‘Capstone’, the opening track on the album, Sirius Blvck offers a look from inside his space, “This is what we’ve come to. Generational curses I still can’t undo. Just taught my lil girl to tie her shoes now she running to. Holy smokes lungs made of leather like it’s comfortable. Climbing up this infinite ladder to get a better view.” These three musical vagabonds have met up to find even themselves surprised with the results. Drawing inspiration from the likes of biting poetic commentary of the late Naptown residents, Etheridge Knight and Kurt Vonnegut, OJ summons a golden-era flow and paints a picture of the group’s influences, surroundings, and trajectory in one fell swoop in ‘Thumbs Up’: “Alright, in my feelings tonight, Honda Civic overturned as it burns through the night. Bone Thugs in these streets no Surender in sight. I’m writing poems from a jail cell, Etheridge Knight. I throw a fit when I flip it, it’s all vintage. A pearl white Bronco like OJ you done did it. The sunshine shatters the rock painted so vivid. Two-hundred fifty pounds of gifted we so lifted… wassup?” Sirius, with poetry present even in his speaking voice, adds, “It’s a way to carve our story in the sky before we’re gone. This is us choosing to believe that this time, things will be different. It is an affirmation to the universe. This time I’ll see the whole blessing. This time I’ll be of use.” Artist 81355 Genre Electronica Label 37d03d Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Capstone Maroon Hard 2 Find Anointed The Void Thumbs Up Purple Through a Portal Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Electronica Graham's picks View Product Quick View Global Communication 76:14 Electronica | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP Released 24th January 2020 £27.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Global Communication 76:14 £27.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP2546 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 24th January 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Squarepusher Dostrotime Electronica | Warp | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 1st March 2024 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Squarepusher Dostrotime £25.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Warp SKU: WARPLP366 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released Date: 1st March 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Apparat LP5 Electronica | Mute | 1LP Released 22nd March 2019 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Apparat LP5 £24.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Mute SKU: STUMM436 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 22nd March 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Alex Somers Siblings Electronica | Krunk | 2LP Released 16th April 2021 £28.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Alex Somers Siblings £28.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Krunk SKU: 0190296810152 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 16th April 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Burial Rival Dealer EP Electronica | Hyperdub | 12", EP/Mini Album Released 16th December 2013 £8.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Burial Rival Dealer EP £8.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Hyperdub SKU: HDB080 Formats: 12", EP/Mini Album Released Date: 16th December 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View I Speak Machine Zombies 1985 Electronica | Lex | 1LP Released 4th September 2017 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders I Speak Machine Zombies 1985 £16.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Lex SKU: 0878390003747 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 4th September 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Recoil Unsound Methods Electronica | Mute | 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 15th September 2023 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Recoil Unsound Methods £25.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Mute SKU: STUMM159 Formats: 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 15th September 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Chocolate Hills, The Orb Yarns From The Chocolate Triangle Electronica | Cooking Vinyl | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 19th May 2023 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Chocolate Hills, The Orb Yarns From The Chocolate Triangle £22.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Cooking Vinyl SKU: ORBSLP003 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 19th May 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Throbbing Gristle Mission Of Dead Souls Electronica | Mute | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes Download Code Released 14th September 2018 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Throbbing Gristle Mission Of Dead Souls £19.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Mute SKU: TGLP6 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes Download Code Released Date: 14th September 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Actress AZD Electronica | Ninja Tune | 2LP Released 14th April 2017 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Actress AZD £20.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Ninja Tune SKU: ZEN241 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 14th April 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Electronica Start again
