Raime are back with their first material (asde from their Yally project) since their second album on BEB a couple of years back – what a welcome return it is!
This release on Logos & Mumdance’s Different Circles label marks a distinct shift in their sound, moving from the dread filled post-punk techno and combining the icy metallics and precicion drum hits from their Yally project together, creating a new space that sounds both forward-thinking and unsettlingly familiar simultaneously.
It’s still full of dread and organic but with synthetic overtones – is it a club record? Undoubtedly, crafty DJs will be able to work wonders with these 4 tracks, but it’s also a captivating, lights down low listen for anyone with an interest in the every evolving hardcore continuum.
Essential.
