The EP actually came about when Volte-Face heard 'Undertow' on one of Archivist's mixes, enquired where the track could be purchased, only to find that it was a one-off collaboration with no plans for a release. The idea for an EP was proposed and, despite the transatlantic journeying required to make it happen, the record came together relatively quickly. Former Secondnature guest, the Northern Electronics\/Semantica affiliated Acronym, rounds off the EP in resounding fashion with one of his most direct efforts to date. With early support from DJ Nobu, Peter Van Hoesen and Daniel Avery.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bleed","offers":[{"title":"12\"","offer_id":50435273589067,"sku":"1019342","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/8475f18b-c556-4862-8019-46b31928a1b7_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726902075"},{"product_id":"ep2-5","title":"EP2","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe EP opens with 'Lifted', a whimsical sound-design sketch, before heading straight to the dancefloor with the droning, tunneling techno of 'Rote 3'. 'Sun In The Night' is an extended ambient workout, with traces of a psychedelic rock influence. 'Rote 4' is another slice of 'eyes closed' techno, with a hazy atmosphere and squealing siren hook. The EP closes out with 'End Of The Sky', a departure into more emotional territory with lilting synth-work and a gentle propulsion towards the EP's close. BleeD's third release of 2016, following outings from DJ Spider and label head Volte-Face, is a five-track statement from Rote. Formed of Daniel Avery and Volte-Face, this is a second EP release on BleeD for the 'open-ended' techno side-project, the first of which was met with much underground DJ support, and featured remixes from experimental techno doyens Svreca and DJ Nobu \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bleed","offers":[{"title":"LP | x5","offer_id":50435767763275,"sku":"1001200","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/3dbde200-aec5-41c9-9d68-b84101e7d17a_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726907493"},{"product_id":"social-sculpture","title":"Social Sculpture","description":"\u003cp\u003eKiller contribution from Daniel Avery and label boss Volte-Face aka Rote.

Having previously established trusted relationships with leading artists including Daniel Avery, DJ Nobu and Peder Mannerfelt, BleeD ably assists in delivering on the promise of one of the most notable young talents currently working on the fringes of contemporary techno. Thus far showcased on impeccably curated labels such as Uncertainty Principle, Super Hexagon, Fusion Diagnostics and Awkwardly Social, their flair for surgical sound-design and off-kilter arrangements puts them in good company with equally exciting contemporaries such as FFT and Panarorman\/Patrick Conway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe EP covers a lot of ground across 6 tracks, from the gloomy atmospherics of 'Plunicceteh' and 'CMml CoE3\", and the peak-hours stomp of 'systems_component' on the A-side, to the warmer and more uplifting B-side tracks, 'Ria Ilso', 'We Are We Are' and 'Over The Why'.

Guitars surge and sway in stacked waves of gravitational angst, overdriven rhythms eccentrically pulsing beneath, and guitarist \/ singer Ryan Hughes’s voice floating in and out, sometimes distant and detached, sometimes cracked open with desperation. Lyrics move in fragments, alluding to themes of deep interntal struggle, coping mechanisms and hurting those you love most.

There’s a confidence to the way Bleed let’s these songs unfold, they make their impact immediate and have no need to persist longer than necessary. The result is an album that feels massive yet intimate, brutal yet beautiful, familar yet singular.
