  • Bass Clef is releasing a new album and a handful of reissues. Coming out on September 13th through Open Hand Real Flames, the latest release from Rotterdam-based producer Ralph Cumbers is called Hard Lessons Hardly Learned / Holy Days Wholly Dazed. It comprises two lengthy tracks and is meant as a follow up to Cumbers' 2018 album (minimum wage)(zero hours)(infinite forest), which was also made of up extended tracks. Cumbers also announced that he acquired the rights to his first two albums, 2007's A Smile Is A Curve That Straightens Most Things and 2009's May The Bridges I Burn Light The Way, both of which were originally released on Blank Tapes and hew closer to dubstep. He'll reissue both on his other label Magic + Dreams, along with a new compilation called Zamyatin Renumbered, which features tracks that were originally released on two-12 inches as well as an unmastered digital-only compilation. The two albums will remain as they were first released, while the music on Zamyatin Renumbered was remastered by Joe Caithness for what Cumbers calls a "super bass-heavy and brutal" sound. All three will come out on September 20th.
