More Info
Following on from the huge successes of their previous EPs Love and Other
Drugs and Dream On which furthered solidifed their commendable reputation in
the electronic music scene, the pairing's frst- ever collaborative longplayer
consists of 14 tracks which perfectly demonstrate their creative mastery and
unmatched abilities to experiment with various styles spanning indie electronic,
lo-f jungle, garage, techno and more.
Setting things in motion you'll fnd Cold Tear of a Dreaming Vacuum Cleaner, a
mellow yet energising electronica-meets-D&B cut guaranteed to permeate your
headspace with hypnotising synth plucks, bouncy drumwork and ambient
atmospheres directly transported from a futuristic nearby universe.
Expect nothing but 80's euphoria on Storm In A Teacup featuring Isaac Howlett -
the frontman of synthpop group Empathy Test. Bop x Subwave provide late night
nostalgia in its purest form with retro drum machines and catchy electronic
hooks as Isaac Howlett supplies distinct melodies and imaginative lyricism.
The strikingly titled Rave I Didn't Know Was The Last is a glimmer into the now
distant past of lockdowns and worldwide no- dance policies. Delving into a
beautiful combination of garage and breakbeat infuences, you'll soon become
immersed in hands-in-the-air piano stabs and downpitched vocal chops instantly
taking you back to the last rave you blissfully danced the night away at.
Hush featuring fellow Russian drum & bass don Enei, and Hospital's freshest
signing SOLAH, is a techy drum & bass liquid number layered with hazy chimes,
minimal 2-step drums and a sinister bassline. Stripped back and rolling, SOLAH's
vocals are a sublime addition as she graces the track with her delicate harmonies
and captivating lyricism.
In true Bop x Subwave fashion, Addicted To Space is a UK- garage stepper
complete with subtle lo-f injections. As they step into the 130BPM territory brace
yourself for dissonant chord stabs, distorted vocal chops and a womping
bassline. This isn't the duo's frst rodeo in the world of garage either - their initial
UKG collaboration 'Haze' topped the Beatport Garage charts back in 2020.
Other notable album moments include the irresistable 80's synth- pop anthem
Wait For Me released earlier in 2022, as well as Euphoric Rush featuring the
vocals of Enter Shikari's very own Rou Reynolds. Karina Ramage also makes an
appearance
