Lukid has a new album en route on Actress’ Werk Discs label

The record will be the fourth Werk release from the dour British producer. Juno Plus point towards a new track from the record, the highly impressive ‘This Dog Can Run’.

Lukid’s special talent is to produce rickety, woozy beats that never descend into navel/shoe gazing, and ‘This Dog Can Run’ shows he’s not lost his dirt-smudged touch. Those curdled synth tones, used to such bellicose effect on the Spitting Bile EP, are employed for softer purposes here. A stately melody unfurls over glacial layers of synth, and the drums keep things in order rather than spiralling out of control. Lukid being Lukid, he runs the track ragged: wreathed in distortion and cavalierly mixed, ‘This Dog Can Run’ favours grit over gloss. The Glum boss has already promised something“quite rough and raw” for the album, and this latest transmission suggests he’s got quite the tarnished gem on the way.
