Alberich - (2013) Turned Back

 Hospital Productions ‎– 390

Kris Lapke's Alberich project just gets better with every release - this really is one of the very best things we've heard in 2013. The Hospital Productions engineer's 'Turned Back' is a straight ace, concisely moving between life-affirming ambient bleakness on 'No Mistake', to the rugged triplet techno swing and noise of the title track to Dwellings-like machine pulses on 'Image Of Progress' and the masticated techno malevolence of 'Judgement'. F**k, man. This guy is on it. Big tip to fans of Gnod's recent techno manoeuvres, Prurient/Vatican Shadow, Covered In Sand.
