Wicked tune; look out for the LP coming on vinyl and digital from May 18th.

Today’s premiere comes courtesy of Taelimb; taken from his forthcoming EP for Mystic State’s Chikara Project imprint, the appropriately titled Grot Bag is a fantastic slab of murky tech minimalism powered by infectiously simple hits, gravelly bass and razor sharp drums.
