Bristol’s Scaler announced their new album Endlessly, it will be out 26th September via Black Acre.
Powerful and immediate, like a raised pulse under taut skin, Endlessly tugs at emotional threads and sonic touchpoints that feel tangled up – deliberately so – in the musical heritage of their city. There are traces of trip-hop, drum‘n’bass and experimental electronic, plus flashes of pupil-dilating techno, metal and drill, all carried by immense low-end pressure and tempered by more subdued, spatial stretches that drift and sprawl. Voices layer and loop, instrumentals do the same.
Speaking on the single, the band says “collaboration was central to the creation of this album, and Akiko was the first artist we reached out to. We’ve been long-time fans of her vocals, sound design, and production, and working together has been something we’ve wanted to do for a long time, so we’re thrilled it finally came to life. We had this sparse and haunting track that felt like the perfect canvas for Akiko. From the moment we heard her initial ideas, we knew we had something special and couldn’t wait to share it.”
