ALWAYS EVERYTHING

FORTHCOMING // RAIME “IF ANYWHERE WERE HERE…”

Raime - If Anywhere was here he would know where we are (SHORT CLIP) by Blackest Ever Black

Forthcoming Dec 6th, Blackest Ever Black

Following an unbelievable debut that infiltrated everywhere from scene leading techno contingent, mnml ssgs, to Pitchfork blog collective Altered Zones, Raime returns on Kiran Sande’s Blackest Ever Black imprint with a follow up: If Anywhere Was Here He Would Know Where We Are. Considering the first 12” was built out of samples culled from all manner of experimental post punk (see Raime’s excellent You Can’t Hide Your Headcrack mixtape for a journey through that aesthetic), who better to contribute a remix than Downwards founder and Sandwell District contributor Regis? A staunch supporter of all things Industrial, its impossible to understate Regis’ continuation of that ethos through his work in the Birmingham techno scene. Whilst only a short clip of the A side is available right now, head to the 20 minute mark on mnml ssgs’ October mixtape to hear Regis’ sublime reworking of This Foundry, subtle machine movements gradually giving way to an overwhelming and all encompassing ethereality. Although slight, like the Raime EP the tracks go cavernously deep:  music for a burnt out future that might be closer than we think.
