With wonky, quirky grooves wrapped in fuzzy machine textures, NERK and KIRN show their impishly contrarian approach to sonic expression. Hyperbolic is delicately leftfield of techno, in precise plucks and washes of sound – plus a dub with four-on-the-floor … cowbell. Ups jig is a murky, off-balance broken cycle with melancholy lyricism over top. How to judge premonitions goes darker, with menacing humming electronics and throbbing kick. Together, it’s a compact amuse-bouche of weird.
