New tracks of forward-thinking club music from Kenyan producer Slikback, continuing in rule-shredding, genre-melding form. Two new enigmatic originals, and two remixes -- one from Sarmacja, natives of his current home, Poland, who give "Quoios" a dub workout, the other from Bristolian producer Sunun, spinning out "Klout" in a less pressured environment. On the A side, "Quoios" charts a looming, atmospheric build-up gives way to driving, chainsaw wielding industrial beats layered with vocals and samples. "Klout" meshes dark tones and complex rhythms, with a very slight nod to acid on the sounds. Both tracks are warehouse-ready dancefloor weapons. On the B side, Sarmacja's dub pulses from the off, introducing a strand of keening vocals and cosmic flushes. Sunun's remix offers a slower, exploratory and haunting re-imagining of "Klout".
