CLARK
New, club-ready material being announced on Throttle Records soon, we have availability for Clark’s solo rave show, for the remainder of 2019.

edit:  https://clark.bandcamp.com/album/branding-problem

After personally not feeling the Kiri release, I am excited for this.

This is great news. Hoping for something like his Warp30 mix.

More Clark is good Clark!

I can't wait

Still wondering why it's not on w a r p though, anyway, I'd love to support throttle records some more

man, I used to love clark. And I hate to be negative - but I feel like I can already hear this new material without even putting it on

Looking forward to. Club-ready material could be promising. Hell I'd take another Turning Dragon at this point.

I wonder when this is going to be announced

He just announced his new single "Branding Problem"

(bandcamp edit doesnt work, ive tried it about 5 times now)

Just get the albumID from the WordPress embed - that's all you need...

Sounds like some of the walloping kit he was rolling out during his live stints in '17. Yusss.

Legacy Pet is a great track, I think he played it on his warp30 mix as well. Excited to hear the other one. Also lol at that single cover, is that Clark himself?

"branding problem": at least he knows why he's bankrupt

Clark is an interesting artist for me. I enjoy plenty of tracks off of all of his albums (excluding Kiri and The Last Panthers, it was just fine but nothing worthy of going back to), yet all of his albums structures feel so frontloaded, its hard to choose what my favorite album of his would be, since I enjoy all of them (though Body Riddle did not click with me to have a replayable track, perhaps a relisten could help me think more than "this sounds cool"?).

Either way I am looking forward to this since I admire Clark's work. Time to take a peak at his Warp30 mix since I never have somehow  

Legacy Pet once again is a build up to a track that never appears before fading away.

Finally!!

Think he p much got dropped

I'd believe it, even if it seemed like he was getting more well-known with his last few albums.

I don't think WARP 'drops' artists like Clark - I think it may be more a case that he's fulfilled his contract, and possibly he chose not to renew, or he did, but there is material he wanted to release himself, etc. - there could be a myriad of reasons we're not privy to.

Bleep mail out advertising the new release for sale, so its not a falling out.

September 19 quote is accurate for the B-side, "Legacy Pet". Not a bad track, but it's predicable.

Well, to be fair it would have to be a pretty serious falling out for them to 'blacklist' Clark's work - plus Bleep stands to make money off of a popular artist and a new release (regardless of label).

I like it for what it is, it's a nice slow club banger and it makes me curious to hear Branding Problem
