Holy Crap Arcola Is Back ! (maybe)

Remember the Warp sister label Arcola that existed in a little bubble when Bleep was just a baby with it's quaint boxy design?

Well 15 years later and finally we've finally got another 12'' with tDr designed goodness:

Rian Treanor has long been a staple of our listening habits since his game-changing sides for The Death Of Rave. Having kept quiet on the release front since the summer of 2016, he sparks off the seventh Arcola with the Contraposition EP.

Showing a darker side to his sound than previous releases, Contraposition's four entries mix subzero tones with a serious techno insight. Effortlessly rewiring the twilight sound of UK Garage, Eski rhythms at their most skeletal, and a serotonin-soaked Reinforced style sensibility.

Hopefully this means more Brothomstates could be on the cards !

wow count me in !

lol the ep is not even 4 minutes long and the tracks sound pretty meh

Arcola... I still have the whitelabel test pressing of the first release!

fucking love Treanor. Saw him live recently supporting Mark Fell (he's Fell's son btw)

Hoping those track times are in error

No digital with the 12" ?

good bit of trivia

Yeah seems a bit weird pressing this to 12" if its so short. A 7" ep would be ideal

LOL those track times

Isn't that pretty wasteful and kinda gross to bother putting a less than 4m release on a physical medium, especially vinyl?

Seems kind of silly. 

(I'm no zealot when it comes to waste or anything, just seems a bit much for 4m).

True but previews typically have a fixed time. Those are some bizarre random preview lengths.

Usually bleep fixed preview times are 1 minute exactly aren't they? Edit: sorry, I mean unless they give you the whole track as a preview.

I don't even know Arcola tbh I just saw those track times and was like...wtf. lol.. sorry.

Let's hope that's some sort of weird preview time. =)

dunno if these have been announced yet but someone from TDR tweeted these

2814 ? how is this club music ? 

the tweet with those pics has been taken down, or at least I can't find it. Take that as you will

Have my copy, can confirm it is longer than 4m. Also: sounds ace.

Also 2814? Damn. Will have to keep an eye out for those.
