Pinch - Reality Tunnels (Tectonic)

https://pinch-tectonic.bandcamp.com/album/reality-tunnels

Have been craving a new Pinch album for a while.  The Sherwood collab a few years back left me feeling a little flat.  I still see the Shackleton collab as a high benchmark...

After a second play through, this new LP however feels like a label compilation though.

There is grime, some amen breaks, a few techno tracks, a few dub-step-ish rollers, an ambient bridge... something that sounds like Martyn... etc....  Tempo and style is all over the place.  But whilst all good tunes, it doesn't really feel like a cohesive album to me.  A nice showcase all the facets of Pinch's influences though.

pinch is a great producer. way too many collabs on this.
