Following yesterday’s announcement of SHALT‘s ʃælt ii, Mixmag has the premiere of “Liquesce”, the opener and second entry from the EP (listen to Nid De Guêpes” here). Dominated by a steady, lilting central rhythmic pattern, “Liquesce” is a perfect example of SHALT at his most functional, allowing a dense array of textural elements to swirl around a steady core. ʃælt ii is out this Friday (August 3) and is available for pre-order here.
We’ve been fairly quiet in the aftermath of our inaugural EU/UK tour, but this Friday that all changes. ʃælt ii is the first of an almost monthly run of releases that will see a SHALT album, debut releases from Alis and M.D. James and the long-awaited return of Nunu. First though, Resident Advisor has the goodies on the second entry into SHALT‘s functional, non-narratively inclined ʃælt series. A few of these tracks were previewed in SHALT’s FACT Mix, a must listen if you haven’t checked it yet. You can find pre-order links below and be on the lookout for a very special, tremor-inducing Nunu remix.
