W.M.I.D / Hold Back (feat. Valentin Stip)

A 4 track dubstep ep (21m ) — released August 22nd 2011 on Left Blank

LB002 arrives in August featuring a track apiece from Londoners Visionist & Lorca. 21 year old Louis Carnell aka Visionist aka Mr.67 has built up quite a following in the last few months since his tracks started to appear in Oneman sets on Rinse as well as at his Standard Place/Boiler Room residency. ‘W.M.I.D’ drops a sparse but rugged 808 rhythm alongside heaving subs, under a clipped RnB vocal refrain, sitting somewhere between recent offerings from Teeth, Addison Groove, French Fries and Bok Bok. Fellow 21 year old Sam Cassman debuts here as Lorca after having previously dropped wax for Awkward Movements under the name Dodger Man. Sam currently resides in Brighton, where as resident for one of the city’s premier nights - AKA AKA Roar - he has recently played alongside Loefah, Pearson Sound, Appleblim and more. His offering ‘Hold Back’ maintains the stripped back vibe, built around a melancholic organ arrangement and equally tearjerkin’ vocal snippet, essential for fans of Koreless or Deadboy. The digital release features 2 exclusives; a collaboration from the pair, the dark and heavy ‘Slapstickk’ capturing both of their styles perfectly, and also a remix from recent Clown & Sunset signing Valentin Stip. His reworking of Hold Back is a super slow, jazz inflected adaptation reminiscent of his new label boss Nicolas Jaar.
