Unbelievably this is Luke Vibert’s first proper release on Warp. Despite being closely affiliated to the label and its artists for years now, it has taken ten years for the pair to finally seal the knot.
 
A teaser for the forthcoming YosepH album, this two track EP is classic Vibert. He may have eschewed the normal sample overload but it’s still a distinctive sound. Synthax builds from its skittering electro drums, adding a waspish, thin sounding synth noise and detuned rave-esque piano stabs; it’s nothing mind-blowing by his own high standards but still stands above most of the rival competition.
 
I Love Acid on the flip though is the real deal, an electronic voice sings the praises of the 303 over a bubbling acid bassline, restrained but still pulsing with mean intent, whilst the drums build and fall.
 
It’s a perfect teaser for one of the most eagerly awaited albums of the year from an artist who thouroughly deserves to be amongst the highest echelons of the electronic scene.
