UK artist Chris Clark has been on the edge of technology driven electronic music for quite some time, never bending his creative input to what the broad population have considered cool, and it’s allowed him to release nine studio albums and become a long term name on the Warp Records roster.
He has recently launched his very own imprint, Throttle Records, with a double A-sided single from himself titled E.C.S.T. T.R.A.X.. The EP also comes at the same time as his NTS Radio show, and a new mixtape for Dummy Mag, which features 15 brand new and previously unreleased Clark tracks for us to enjoy.
Clark told Dummy “I loved the first 23 mins of music of this mix, but then I started shitting it – I had no idea what to do. But literally on the last day of deadline I plugged in some hardware, drum machines and synths/fx pedals, hit record and had a right good bloody fun slab” Adding “I’ve basically just gone and given you ALL a load of unreleased tracks of mine in the form of mixtape. Plus some favourite tunes of other artists I like.”
Whether another EP or long player will come from the new work will need to be decided by Clark, and for now you can check out the tracklist and mixtape below.
