Reality Therapy

Russell Haswell's first new work on Diagonal since 37 Minute Workout Vol. 2 in 2019 is a response to the continued absorption of real-time video feeds on YouTube in and around the Covid period. The release is accompanied by a special visual collaboration with MuirMcNeil, the design partnership whose activities focus on systematic and algorithmic methods in type design, graphic design and moving image. Paul and Hamish have previously worked with Factory Records / Hacienda, Juan Atkins, Durutti Column and more. Haswell himself has released music on Warp, Warner Classics, Editions Mego; he has curated shows for galleries including New York's PS1 and TBA 21 in Vienna, and collaborated with the likes of Merzbow, Florian Hecker, Pain Jerk and Yasunao Tone. CD and digital. Release 22 September.
