  • Etch has a new album out next month called Thematic Clusters Of Storytelling. The six-track, vinyl-only release is the Brighton artist's third album after Ups & Downs and 2020's Strange Days. It's out via LMD SkunkWorks, a sub-label of LMD Recordings that has laid dormant since 2010. "Thematic Clusters Of Storytelling is like a love letter to the UK sound, bridging and fusing all my influences, from drum & bass to dubstep to UK garage, in one cohesive record," Etch told Resident Advisor. "I used Fruity Loops, an E-MU 6400 Ultra [sampler] and a [Roland] SP-404 mainly, plus some other hardware in my studio for the recording process." Listen to clips.
