Debut release from new signing Hugh Crewdson Jones, soon to be followed by his full length release >Gravity<, scheduled fto hit the shops early next year. His music could be described as an upbeat and playful concoction of electronic music, taking in influences from techno, jazz, 2-step, dubstep, your doorstepË poses the question of what might happen if you threw Polar Bear, Flying Lotus, Aphex Twin and maybe even The Streets in a room together.Comes with code for free digital download of this EP.


"There’s a disembodied voice kicking around the sound of a hundred cassette decks unspooling at once. But he’s got a beat to counteract, tiny percussion and a broken snare, as though he’s throwing the literal kitchen sink full of instrument junk at our stupid American desire to box him in." [Fader]


Here you get 2 tracks from Crewdson leading each side of the vinyl (‘Dust Crawlers’ and ‘Pet’ for A and B respectively) followed up by equally intriguing remixes and reworkings of Crewdson tracks. ‘Mime’ reworked by Ninja Tune’s acclaimed recent signing Grasscut and ‘Goodbye Old Friend’ remixed by 'Hackney Centalist' Bass Clef [Blank Tapes].

"Tricky 'tronica styles from London's Crewdson on Robert Logan's esteemed Slowfoot imprint, readied with remixes from Bass Clef and Grasscut. Unavoidable comparisons to Mount Kimbie or Matthew Herbert are well warranted on the complex, jazz-structured intricacies of 'Dust Crawlers' or the spindly glitch sound of 'Pet', while Grasscut turn 'Mime' into a fractal IDM pop moment, kinda like The Chap in a fonky K-Hole, and Bass Clef gives 'Goodbye Old Friend' a healthy dancefloor workout". [Boomkat]

"...showcases his unusual yet inventive approach toward assembling beats in an ad hoc manner" [Lineofbestfit]

"Deeply inventive, forthcoming EP 'Dust' has already gained some fantastic reviews. Removing the flab from dubstep, Crewdson harks back to the skeletal post-garage of Burial - emotive, introspective and shrouded in mystery." [Clash Magazine]
