* 66 copies limited edition * "This split sees the two members of South London-based Ashcircle performing under their solo guises. If you’re unfamiliar, Ashcircle deliver awkward electronic plonk outs, a kind of ragged yet hopeful perpetual glitch to “cope with the chaos of overwhelming information and Tory governments”. City of Urbom and Yawning Gap are described as the duo’s dungeon synth projects, but they place a markedly wabi-sabi spin on the genre. Small and off-kilter sonic gestures become transfixing. Stumbling back and forth with a clumsily hypnotic gait or entering repetitions bridging maddening and soothing. Rather than conjuring virtual-feudal realms or time locked video game environments, their take on dungeon synth collapses the immersive into something fidgety. Lopsided loops that latch onto moments of magic in incessant wonkiness." - Daryl Worthington, The Quiets
