The British/Serbian double duo have unveiled a full-length album.
Shadow Story is the name of the label co-run by Martin Cartledge and Alexander Church (AKA Bradford duo Dronelock) alongside Serbian producers Boris Noiz and Darko Dekode (known collectively as Ontal).
Since forming Shadow Story last year, the duos have released a six-track collaborative EP entitled Continuum and a remix EP of their track ‘Clusters’, featuring reworks from Rivet and Mark Broom. Their abrasive analogue creations have found their way into the crates of Surgeon, Marcel Dettman, Pearson Sound and Stroboscopic Artefacts’ Lucy.
The next release on Shadow Story will be the first full-length collaborative album from the duos. Dronelock and Ontal’s debut LP is titled The Topics and is due for a release on May 4. The album collects 12 slices of uncompromising industrial techno and rhythmic noise, described by the pairs as “music which is about as far away from music as you can get before it stops being music!”
