XI 2010
What a crazy month this has been. Kicking off January with Light FM/Glass coming out on Texas heavyweight label Formant Recordings got the ball rolling in a big way. Here is what Sonic Router has to say about this 12″:
“…the Formant release is warmer in tone. The wispy drama and skittery percussion of ‘Glass’ recall the more abstract moments of 2562’s ‘Unbalance’ album, and ‘Light FM’ sends glacial chimes rippling through an ascend-descend bass melody that never really takes any drastically different trajectory – instead exploring every permutation before dissipating.”

I can’t thank the Sonic Router family enough for their help in making this release shine, cheers!

Now to kick off February my EP “Atmospheric Pressure” on American label Surface Tension Recordings has hit shops everywhere and proves to keep the momentum going. The official word on this one:
“For the fourth release on Surface Tension Recordings, Toronto’s XI steps up with the Atmospheric Pressure EP. These four tunes are hitting right at the seismic center of the techno/dubstep/garage collision, doling out in equal measure the shuffle of garage, the space and depth of techno, and the bottom end of dubstep.”
Later this month as well I’ve got 2 more releases loaded up on Bristol’s Immerse Records and Aufect Digital respectively.
Thank you to all the supporters for getting this year started off right!!
