If this item in stock, then you will get an infomation E-Mail!Cyan341 is Bethnal Green boy Mark Streatfield, returning to Uncharted Audio here with his new EP *Coal Train*. Released ahead of the full length *Far From Home* album, this EP follows his earlier *Disconnected* and *Pattern 4* releases on Uncharted Audio (licensed by James Zabiela and championed by the likes of Move D and Benjamin Brunn). When we first heard the opening track it was signed on the spot – probably one of the finest UK techno rumblers we have heard in many a year.
Expertly straddling the borders of ‘deep’ and ‘dub’, this is a prime piece of soulful warehouse real estate. Partnered with it on side A is “Far From Home”, a track Streatfield wrote in the rice fields of Bali whilst thinking of the rainy tower blocks and grey skies of his East London home. Flip over for “Nanakorobi Yaoki” - a moody acid track made around the time of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami whilst concerned for friends caught up in the tragedy.The EP closes on a poppier note with “Space Kitty’s Theme” - an unapologetic 80’s inspired celebration of life with a distinct Italo slant.[info from wa]
