214 is enjoying a burst of creative energy at the moment, and Cultivated Electronics are also starting off the New Year in fine style, following up Assembler Code’s ‘Write Pulse EP’ with this. This is also 214’s second release
of the year, after ‘Rex & Shuffle’ on Klaxon. On first hearing this release feels more subdued than his previous one, with the beats being crisper and the pace slower, funkier and less obviously confrontational. The threatening vibes present on ‘Nocturnal Hikes’ and ‘Earthworms’ are twisted and otherworldly, with ‘Linolium Or Cardboard’ churning out something similar but at a funkier frequency. Standout for me is ‘It Never Really Ends’, which is parallel universe breakdance gear.
