Emerging from what sounds like the unknown depths of outer space, new artist Icore drops a debut EP on Osiris Music uk lled with ve exercises in hypnotic, polyrhythmic tension. The A-side s two tracks Sigil and Status Field feel like two parts of a whole, each establishing a minimal, kick-heavy march in 68 that would perfectly ll the cavernous hull of an abandoned mining vessel, lurching through empty parts of the galaxy to the sound of ominous drones and malfunctioning, high-end bleeps. The B-side is more cinematic in its scope, with opener Substance From Shadow summoning a distinctly b-movie vibe in its melody, before both Claimed By Night and Axiom retreat into darker, more ambient territory; the former thick in sub- bass kicks; the latter ramping up the dread with unnerving repetition.
