ROB STOW レコード& CD

Review: Low, crunchy, textural new techno from Rob Stow, reflective of a distinctively Northern UK sound. Influenced by the incipient points of Detroit and Chicago but filtered through a Brutalism that could only ever come from an English morbidity, the likes of 'Mono 90' and 'Chug' unfurl like the quick construction of a prefabricated housing estate. Simple and to the point, with its bouncy, sharp lead bounce-synth, you likely won't want to cross whoever runs the local pirate 'Don't FM' in a dark alleyway either.
