Nicholas returns to Church with a six track mini LP. Correspondant welcome Berlin duo Hinode Having established themselves with a string of well received cuts on their own Science Fiction imprint, they were spotted by chance by label boss Jennifer Cardini on a recent record-shopping jaunt. With a raw, no-rules sense of machine funk running through everything they create, they’re the perfect match for Correspondant and make their label debut with four numerical delights. I lights the analog fire with raw sleaze and off-beat mischief. Unkempt and wily, it sets the tone for the entire EP: II writhes snake-like with its slinky kicks and purring textures, III slurs with bass groans and shakes with paranoid, alien melodies while IV closes with much more of a tunnelling, sense-blurring experience. Total machine harmony, unbounded synthetic creativity, made to mix and wholly outer-planetary. Hinode and Correspondant are a match made in the stars.
