Loose, sprawling and oddball techno released via Web3 from the artist otherwise known as Run Dust.

It feels remiss to talk about "Banal Like Furniture" without mentioning that it was released via the artist-led blockchain platform Nina, but the track is more than just its novel format. The sprawling, ten-minute jam is one of the most distinctive tunes yet from the Brussels producer (previously known as Run Dust, and with a history in grindcore and metal), starting off with a plink-plonk rhythm and slowly building with head-turning, sometimes queasy sounds. It all feels three-dimensional but woozy, the aural equivalent of beer goggles, as uncanny valley voices mutter unintelligible phrases. It's a little bit techno, a little bit dub and a whole lot of weird, a distinctive way to help launch a platform as potentially promising as Nina.
