Oh,my bad. Misread that. At any rate it'd be awesome to him.

Sorry for the delay with Bleep. I guess they have been back logged since Record Store Day. Up there now and thanks for the support for Luke! Here is a snippet of the good things Bleep had to say about the mini EP btw...
 

"On Turn, Luke Vibert delivers some of what we'd say is the most joyous liquid funk and Illbient leaning sampladelia to seep out of his studio since he dropped 'We Hear You' on Planet Mu back in '09. Packed to the brim with the trademark entire hard drive and many years digging standard sample library, Turn blends all our favourite Vibert modes into one DJ friendly package."
