More records from !!! (Chk Chk Chk)
There’s this thing about making art where in order to make it feel exciting for yourself, you have to reinvent yourself each time. You have to keep pushing. Go at it like a beginner. Take a white wall and color it in. Every new thing you make has to feel like a statement, the best new version of yourself. Dance punk royals !!! know the feeling well—they’ve been releasing urgent, obliterative, fuck-you music for 25 years. Music, for !!!, has to be a place where anything can happen. To quote frontman Nic Offer “We’ve always been pushing towards something stranger and weirder. We had to keep pushing on.”
The band’s ninth record, Let it Be Blue, takes that feeling of constant, radical transformation to new, untapped zones. It’s a record of sparse dance music. The kind of stuff you want to put on loud, let loose, go to the bar to get a drink only to abandon your plans because the song that just came on was too good not to dance to.
Let it Be Blue is a computer record, but it doesn’t feel like it. Featuring production from Patrick Ford, Let it Be Blue is the product of file sharing, trading stems, song particles, little ideas on their way to being fully realized dance tracks. It was conceived during the past two years, with dreams of future dancefloors very much on the brain. The resulting 11 songs are some of the band’s most production focused offerings to date. They’re crystalline, full of sub-bass and drums. It evokes visions of clubs where a concoction of Dembow and acid house play at volumes so loud your ears hurt and you forget what day of the week it is. In other words, it’s a !!! album. It makes you freak out a little bit.
Making something sparse was an exciting challenge for the band. “Starting as a band with seven or eight people, we were always crowding everything in and trying to fit as many parts as possible,” says Offer. Let it Be Blue is a departure from that.It’s minimalist, but that doesn’t at all mean that these songs aren’t complicated, self-contained worlds. They are.
“Storm Around the World,” starts out unassuming. Drum machines, bluish synthesizers, Rafael Cohen’s pristine vocals. Then it turns into a hypertrophied, club freakout. Sink Ya Teeth’s Maria Uzor jumps on the track, oscillating between spoken word and mysterious, hypnotic vocal runs. The song feels like a night bus conversation between Uzor and Cohen. It’s an electrifying duet.
“Panama Canal,” comes from file sharing between Rafael Cohen and Mario Andreoni. It started with Andreoni making a beat, and then Cohen getting excited because it sounded like “Plain Jane,” by A$AP Ferg. Featuring vocals from Meah Pace, the song is sweaty and slick, evoking Ferg as well as old Kompakt Records compilations, which Andreoni had been listening to at the time he made the beat for the song.
“This is Pop 2,” has the same glow as a Suicide song. Written by Nic Offer, the song is a slow burn. A drum machine pulses away in the background, while synthesizers grow louder and a guitar at the song’s midpoint makes the whole vibe ecstatic and sensual. “This is pop and it goes in your ears/All that matters is u like it there,” goes the song’s hook.
The record’s cast of collaborators are another !!! signature, another way for the band to feel constantly excited about the discovery process that is making new work. This shift has been in the works for a decade. It started on Thr!!!ler, a record that you might consider a turning point in the band’s expansive discography. In the past decade, the band has collaborated with an exciting rotation of artists. On this record, that desire to experiment alongside other artists feels especially realized. “Those characters stand out more,” says Offer. They feel especially distinct. When Angelica Garcia hops on vocals on “Un Puente,” the scenery changes again. We’re not in the New York City lofts of yore, we’re on a goddamn beach, pupils dilated, bouncing from high BPM.
Let it Be Blue is a record about discovery, uncovering new parts of yourself, going there.
How many dance records start off with an acoustic track? Let it Be Blue does, it’s called “Normal People,” and it’s a Laurel Canyon-esque amuse bouche. If serious in intent, it's cheeky in placement at the beginning of a dance record. It’s like taking a first step in a new place before everything changes in weird and excellent ways. It’s kind of like a Pandora's Box. Open it up, the whole world
shifts and transforms around you. There’s also a sense of melancholy and hope on the record. That’s where the title comes from. Instead of the finality of let it be, blue adds a feeling of acceptance that things will pass, that melancholy and tragedy are temporary. Mostly though, Let it Be Blue will make you really want to get down and dance.

Black Vinyl Gatefold+Poster
Washington DC singer Kelela has always sounded most interesting when there's friction in the machinery, and this record keeps finding new ways to rough up her usual futurist r&b palette. 'Point Blank' opens with clipped drums and queasy synth pulses that never settle properly, while 'Goin Down' drags distorted bass through the mix until the whole thing starts sounding pleasantly overheated. AK Paul turns 'Outta Time' into a twitchy, metallic thing full of collapsing rhythm patterns and cold synth stabs. Later on, 'Don't Piss Me Off' strips everything back to pounding percussion and pure irritation, before 'The Bridge' briefly softens the mood with PinkPantheress floating through the track like something half disappearing into radio static.

London braingaze experimenters Seefeel return with Sol.Hz, their first full-length album in 15 years and a carrying-on of the hazy IDM that saw to their becoming one of Warp Records' most distinctive early signings. Famously among the first acts on the label to fold guitars into an electronic framework, the group again dissolve the adumbrations of shoegaze, dub and ambient techno, a now much-exploited sonic terrain by sound revivalists today. Tracks like 'Ever No Way' and 'Humidity Switch' drift through thick clouds of delay and bass pressure, where Mark Clifford's intricate hand permits fragments of lick and rhythm pulse below Sarah Peacock's processed, hyper-thin vocals. The record also follows renewed activity from the band in recent years, including the 2024 mini-albums Everything Squared and Squared Roots, not to mention a return to live performance after a long stretch of dormancy.

Squarepusher is back on Warp with Kammerkonzert - Tom Jenkinson's 16th studio album and a harmony-driven electronic "chamber concerto" structured across 14 movements, from 'K1 Advance' to 'K14 Welbeck'. Following 2024's Dostrotime - a sound-thesis on the crystallisation of time in the COVID era, frozenness expressed in breakbeats - and arriving after Warp's recent reissue of his early 'Stereotype' EP makings from 1994, here Jenkinson foregrounds the orchestra, as baroque-tinged harmonies, chamber-like arrangements and intricate interplays discourse through his trademark electronic toolkit, patience be damned despite the real instrumentation. Early previews such as 'K2 Central' suggest a more reflective Squarepusher, folding IDM complexity into the architecture of a modern concerto while extending the classical-meets-machine tension running through his work since Hard Normal Daddy and Ultravisitor.

This is Nala Sinephro's debut original film score, for Benny Safdie's The Smashing Machine, which was premiered at the 82nd Venice International Film Festival (to a 15min standing ovation!!) ahead of its official release on October 3rd. The Smashing Machine explores the story of legendary mixed martial arts & UFC fighter Mark Kerr, and it stars Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Academy Award nominee Emily Blunt. The score was composed, produced, arranged, mixed and mastered by Nala Sinephro, and it features performances by longstanding collaborators James Mollison, Nubya Garcia, Lyle Barton, Dwayne ‘Wonky Logic’ Kilvington, Morgan Simpson, Natcyet Wakili, Mark Mollison and Sheila Maurice-Grey. As well as the London orchestra Orchestrate, who previously provided strings for Sinephro’s 2024 critically acclaimed album, Endlessness.
QUOTES
Despite it not being officially released yet, the film and soundtrack have already started garnering critical acclaim by the press:
- "The score by the experimental jazz composer Nala Sinephro is all swirling harps and breathy saxophones; arguably no piece of music has ever sounded less like a punch in the face. Yet as an accompaniment to Kerr’s battles in and out of the ring, it’s oddly perfect, giving this tough story an unexpectedly sweet and even spiritual edge. Smashing stuff has rarely been such smashing stuff." - The Daily Telegraph
- "Proof that Dwayne Johnson is a real actor, and potentially a future Oscar winner." - Independent - "Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson is Oscar-worthy in his new film." - BBC

Originally released in 1993, Surfing On Sine Waves is the second album released under the Warp Artificial Intelligence series (the series also includes the two titular compilations, as well as contributions by Autechre, The Black Dog, F.U.S.E. and more).
Surfing On Sine Waves is also the sole album released under Richard D. James’ (aka Aphex Twin’s) Polygon Window alias. The name “Polygon Window” originally appeared as a track name under Richard D. James’ other pseudonym The Dice Man, as the track title for his submission on Artificial Intelligence. Surfing On Sine Waves was chosen as a title by Rob Mitchell based on a quote by Richard D. James. The album debuted at #2 on the UK dance charts. The album was followed the same year with a companion EP titled Quoth. The EP’s title track originally appeared on the album, accompanied by additional songs who first appeared on this release.
Fast forward 32 years to 2025, Surfing On Sine Waves (Expanded Edition) sees the pair of companion releases as a single entity, out on vinyl and CD.

Originally released in 1993, Surfing On Sine Waves is the second album released under the Warp Artificial Intelligence series (the series also includes the two titular compilations, as well as contributions by Autechre, The Black Dog, F.U.S.E. and more).
Surfing On Sine Waves is also the sole album released under Richard D. James’ (aka Aphex Twin’s) Polygon Window alias. The name “Polygon Window” originally appeared as a track name under Richard D. James’ other pseudonym The Dice Man, as the track title for his submission on Artificial Intelligence. Surfing On Sine Waves was chosen as a title by Rob Mitchell based on a quote by Richard D. James. The album debuted at #2 on the UK dance charts. The album was followed the same year with a companion EP titled Quoth. The EP’s title track originally appeared on the album, accompanied by additional songs who first appeared on this release.
Fast forward 32 years to 2025, Surfing On Sine Waves (Expanded Edition) sees the pair of companion releases as a single entity, out on vinyl and CD.

Autechre continue their chronological series of LP reissues with the albums Untilted (2005) and Quaristice (2008).
Neither of these albums have been repressed since their original release and have been widely unavailable for over 15 years.
Demand in the interim has ensured coveted resale among fans wanting to hear this music on vinyl.
These reissues come at a particularly active time for Autechre as they prepare to embark on one of their most extensive live tours to date, including an entirely sold out run of 25 shows in 29 days through US, Canada and Mexico in October, as well as tours in EU (August) and UK (November).
Autechre most recently released new music in November 2024 with the ongoing digital project AE_2022–.
Other LP Reissues available: Incunabula (1993), Amber (1994), Tri Repetae (1995), Chiastic Slide (1997), LP5 (1998), Confield (2001), Draft 7.30 (2003).
