Widowbait by Bleaching Agent

https://ransom-note-records.lnk.to/Widowbait

Ransom Note Records are hyped to welcome the mighty Bleaching Agent to fold for his debut EP with us, Widowbait. The Leeds based producer has been a stalwart of the UK scene for some time, notably as resident at Manchester’s seminal Body Horror night, so we are over the moon the have snared his newest offerings for you. Backed up by fellow Leeds resident and up and coming hotshot, DJ Subaru, on remix duties, Bleaching Agent’s inaugural release on R$N is a deep down and dirty excursion into the murky depths of the UK underground. Have a hot shower on stand by because things are about to get mucky!

Firstly, Cahoots chugs into view, with a low slung bass providing some much needed sleaze atop the relentlessly driving beat, setting the scene perfectly for what is to come. The surge of filth continues to build, as distorted riffs and droning vocals reach peak propulsion and we’re catapulted headlong into the discotheque!

Next up, the titular Widowbait takes an immediate left turn, hurling out angular chimes and broken beats to throw shapes to. Showcasing Bleach Agent’s inimitable production prowess, we’re treated to mesmerising guitar loops and dingy, lofi vocals that create a thoroughly unsettling, yet beautifully danceable climate. Of Now But Not displays yet another side to Our Man In The North, with staccato strings bouncing off sampled vocal stabs to create a rich cacophony of party friendly electronic shenanigans.

Rounding off, DJ Subaru takes Widowbait on a slow motion journey through the trenches. Pumping the Chug dial up to eleven, their experience exciting dancers all over Europe with the Pleasuremaxxx parties is employed here is spades. This remix would be feverishly welcomed on any ALFOS dance floor. Slow. Spacey. Pounding. The raw ingredients are all there and Subaru combines them to perfection, adding a light sprinkling of cosmic magic.
