Fabric's Houndstooth sidelabel gives birth to the next life of Al Tourettes, reborn as Second Storey with a brooding, sci-fi electro-techno sound. As with Dylan Richards aka King Cannibal's seqs-change into House Of Black Lanterns for the same label, 'Margosa Heights' comes from a darker, more complex quadrant of Al's headspace, freeing him to express the melodic intrigue and clinical breakbeat splices of 'Arpy Garble' alongside the radiophonical sound design and mercurial swing of 'Still Seas / Just Mortal', or the memory implant eeriness of 'Hebridean Mind Tours' and the title track's crushed robo-soul techno in a coherant, pulpy sorta narrative.
