Xhin
Cutlass
Cutlass is the 12'' that precedes Sword, Xhin's forthcoming full-length album on Stroboscopic Artefacts. On A1 Surgeon takes the gnashing dance floor focus of 'Teeth' and grinds down the straight-up beats into oblique fragments. Dadub shift the axis that 'Foreshadowed' was build around; it becomes tilted by the weight of a dub-filled undercarriage. On B1 Pfirter moulds the gnarling 'Vent' and makes it brutal. On B2 the original's jangles become offbeat claves, and what was a dream-like state becomes one of disorientation. Perc artfully carves into a deep, diaphanous landscape and amid strange bleeps and fizzles of static something crystallizes, and its something regretful.
