2020 repress - Fresh from his Phonat-remixing OWSLA outing with ASA, Sorrow jumps aboard the good ship Fent Plates with five stunning slice of futuristic garage soul. "Chronicle" ignites with icy ambient charm before hurtling into a soppy wet two-step groove while "Cypher" jumps with more of a D&B-influenced two-step and oozes all manner of harrowed textures. Flipping the switch with soft sonic sentiments, "Kalypso" flexes a smouldering slo-mo halftime vibe that provides heaps of space for the shimmering guitars and dreamy faraway vocals. "Lover's Charm" continues the theme of sexiness thanks to more arresting vocal cries and a cool juxtaposition of industrial drum mechanics and lush organic instrumentation. "Mourner" closes the show on a much more reflective, moodier note, representing Sorrow at his fullest and most forward-thinking. A truly stunning release.
