Latest split 7" on the Awkward Silence label featuring the mysterious scottish electronica outfit The Marcia Blaine School For Girls and D_rradio (death row radio in full), another "little-information-available" collective form the north-east of england. Marcia Blaine offer up 'Kamara Debagging', a 6 1/2 minute workout which has melody at its core but features a deep building percussive understructure that comes to dominate the track with its squashed, mighty rumble. The track's many intricate fizzes, pops and beautiful synth lines keep you occupied while the simple backing beats build and build, all to be topped off with a rumbling outro that will blow your cheap speakers up! Awesome. On the flip, meanwhile, D_rradio take the quiet route with their track 'some other time', another lengthy piece, this time in the vein of Labradford, Stars of the Lid or quieter Tarentel (but with an electronic twist). It's a beautiful piece that works in that distinct, understated way that is so rarely executed with as much panache. Strictly limited to 500 copies only, lovely.
