  • Zomby's decade-old Eski grime album, Mercury's Rainbow, surfaces on Modern Love image
  • Zomby's Mercury's Rainbow, an album-length dedication to Wiley's Eskibeat releases, is coming out through Modern Love on November 24th. The music on the album was first created during "an intense two-week period" around 2008-2009, but were never officially released, says Modern Love. The label adds that the 16 instrumentals see Zomby "riffing on intricately hand-programmed arpeggios, using theories of colour and its relation to the sonic chromatic spectrum—the circle of fifths—to place an expressively avant spin" on Wiley's Eski grime output. Listen to "Delvaux."
