813 - dusty bubbles

our guy in moscow released his second ep with the rad collective today, you can bag it below from their bandcamp. boogie, synths, bass; everything that makes us happy.

in other news, i know we’ve been chatting about it for time, but we finally got the masters back for 813’s ‘spectrum riff ep’ this week, so fingers crossed it’ll be in shops before the year is out. it’s sounding lovely.

plumbeous bubbles

myself and pete pitch dropped our loads when we first heard this 813 track. a stonker in every sense of the word ‘plumbeous bubbles’ is nothing short of the f*cking jam. no messing. those chopped up vocals in in the final furlong? blimey.

potholes in my blog premiered the bubbles today - go check that out now, or stream below. the ‘spectrum riff ep’ officially drops on vinyl in just under two weeks. for those of you that can’t wait, we’ll be selling it upfront from our bandcamp page early next week.
