    Etch Presents the second release on his new imprint Altered Roads. Again looking down different avenues in terms of sonic diversity, tempo and functionality with disregard for pre- conception. Opening with the spacious and weightless drum choppage of ‘Lost Orbit VIP’ looking back to BBC Radiophonic era synth work and all the cosmological imagery that conjures up. The second track ‘Phenomena’ is a different beast altogether, stripped back to the bare minimum of a claustrophobic sub bass, off-kilter Loefah-meets-J Dilla beat and the monotonous groan of an unknown entity, built off the back of an admiration for psychological survival horror video games such as Silent Hill and Forbidden Siren. The first track of side b ‘Beggars Belief’ is a distant cousin of Etch’s 2015 release on Wisdom Teeth ‘Toxin’, with grimey basslines clashing with swung beats, broken glass and gushes of warm synth chords. The final track ‘Paging Dr.Octagon’ Etch directly inputs his admiration for Kool Keith’s alien surgeon. Chopping up old school breaks in the hardest way possible over looped synths and samples from the Mo Wax classic. Available on 12” and digi Etch continues to take his visual sonics down as many paths as possible and this is still just the beginning; with the continued art collaboration from Dario Bea a limited run of t-shirts will also be shipping along with this release. HOLD TIGHT.
