Paul Woolford is back in his Special Request guise for an album’s worth of junglist adventures.
The DJ/producer will simultaneously release the previously hinted three-part Modern Warfare EP series October 30, with the EPs available as individual 12”s (limited to 750 copies each) or as a complete body of work to download or stream. Pre-order it from XL now if you fancy.
Check out the ravey lead track ‘Amnesia’ below, which has already been dubbed Annie Mac’s Hottest Record on Radio 1 – according to the press release, its sets the tone for the rest of the tracks with its “widescreen, illicit-feeling, bass-heavy” sound.
