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 View Product Quick View Burial Antidawn EP Electronica | Hyperdub | 12", EP/Mini Album Released 28th January 2022 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Burial Antidawn EP £16.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Hyperdub SKU: HDBLP050 Formats: 12", EP/Mini Album Released Date: 28th January 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Wojciech Golczewski The Signal Electronica | Death Waltz Originals | 1LP Released 23rd June 2017 £29.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Wojciech Golczewski The Signal £29.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Death Waltz Originals SKU: DWO22 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 23rd June 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Armin Van Buuren Communication 1-3 Electronica | Music On Vinyl | 12", Single Released 31st May 2024 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Armin Van Buuren Communication 1-3 £23.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOV12084C Formats: 12", Single Released Date: 31st May 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View BadBadNotGood IV Electronica | Round Hill Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 14th June 2024 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders BadBadNotGood IV £20.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Round Hill Records SKU: IL2034VW Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 14th June 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Quantic Apricot Morning Electronica | Tru Thoughts | 2LP Released 28th August 2020 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Quantic Apricot Morning £18.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Tru Thoughts SKU: TRULP034 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 28th August 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Flying Lotus Youre Dead Electronica | Warp | 180g, 4LP, Includes Download Code Released 2nd October 2014 £45.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Flying Lotus Youre Dead £45.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Warp SKU: WARPLP256X Formats: 180g, 4LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 2nd October 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Not Me But Us Two Electronica | Sonic Cathedral | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 22nd March 2024 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Not Me But Us Two £21.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Sonic Cathedral SKU: SCR280LP Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 22nd March 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Boards Of Canada Geogaddi Electronica | Warp | 3LP Released 21st October 2013 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Boards Of Canada Geogaddi £21.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Warp SKU: WARPLP101R Formats: 3LP Released Date: 21st October 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Throbbing Gristle TGCD1 Electronica | Mute | 1LP Released 23rd August 2024 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Throbbing Gristle TGCD1 £22.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Mute SKU: TGLP1 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 23rd August 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Carpenter Brut Trilogy Electronica | Caroline FR | 3LP Released 30th June 2017 £32.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Carpenter Brut Trilogy £32.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Caroline FR SKU: 5760674 Formats: 3LP Released Date: 30th June 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Electronica Start again
