Formally Unknown – Fields

Review: Following their latest EP on Dusky's 17 Steps, new release from Formally Unknown — the Saint-Petersburg duo — is an attempt to summarize and reflect on their experience of the past — from dark’n’sweaty dj sets under the heavy ceilings of ‘Tunnel’ to carefree partying in dusty quarrys and endless fields of Russian North West rurals. This bass heavy four-tracker is a diverse smorgasbord of jungle infused beats, squelchy bleeps and precise sonics of classic hardware drum machines that have stood the test of time — the tracks were made between 2015 and 2017.
