Bungle 'Cocooned' (31 Recordings)
Sao Paulo’s Bungle returns to Doc Scott’s 31 Recordings with the biggest bassline you’ll hear all month. A stripped-back, metronomic slice of rolling industrial tech, its no-nonsense classical elements – ludicrously deep, undulating bass nodes and funk-tinged breaks – are studded with delicious modern touches, with the sparking ends of synth electrodes shorting and sniping throughout. It’s a perfect snapshot of the sound 31 has been nailing over the past year.
