About this item

UK DJ / producer and co-founder of the Manchester institution Hoya:Hoya (club night / label), Illum Sphere releases his new 12" via Ninja Tune. His first output since mid 2014's 'Spectre Vex' double pack, the two tracks "Second Sight" and 'Ritual' are reflective of a shift to a more machine-sounding approach to his productions. Lead track "Second Sight" is a stark, paranoid banger lurking in menacing cold wave / minimal wave / industrial territory, whilst on the flip "Ritual" layers minimal, mechanical percussion with gently arpeggiating synth lines. Two expertly crafted cuts from a producer at the top of his game, with more new music on the horizon.
