Beautiful track! I love that 'resonant tube' ambience. Really enjoyed the first album so will certainly be all over this!

Is this coming out on Hyperdub then?

Ninja Choon

incredible combination! first track is really promising. hope they put out full lengths with liz harris and/or earth :-)

AROOOOO

hey I like Aroo

Don't get me wrong, I love Kevin Martin's productions.

This tune fucking amazing, whole album is tbh:

AROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yeah heard this on soundcloud the other day. I am Excite!

Not sure how I feel about the lack of dubbiness in that new track - although i'm not at all familiar Fennesz so maybe harder to appreciate.

On another note just discovered this solo album from their vocalist Roger Robinson released earlier on this year which I'm really liking! http://www.discogs.com/Roger-Robinson-Dis-Side-Ah-Town/release/7026451 reminds me of Linton Kwesi Johnson

This is the tits. More artists should step out of their element and do collabs like this - sure plenty of them don't pan out, but when they do they tend to be excellent as. Sometimes ppl can get lost trying to pushing limits/envelopes when just cross-pollinating with the right complement of sounds can yield plenty new/interesting results.

Anyway pitchfork will prolly give this a 6.5 and find something to bitch about

this is sounding good and that picture is dope

Damn, saw this in the store and was unconvinced, but that track up there is lovely!

they look dead !
the music is great and unexpected wow

The male vocals make me cringe a bit, but hot damn that 'Above Water' track is an absolute beauty.

Really like this - very chilled & atmospheric. The influence of Fennesz with his crackly fuzz marries really well with KMS.

Also available as an 18-track download with an instrumental version of the album.
