- Kevin Richard Martin (AKA The Bug) and KMRU are releasing a collaborative album. Out on June 14th through Phantom Limb, Disconnect is an exploration of dread, hope and profound sonics. The LP combines dub and ambient with KMRU's vocals, which Martin described as possessing "a captivating, lilting, tonal quality." "The album originated from an exploration of a text I wrote during my sound art studies, delving into the complexities of otherness," said KMRU. "The project served as a response to Audre Lorde's idea that differences should be embraced as a dynamic force within humanity, rather than a perceived threat." Disconnect follows Martin's run of Machine EPs. He'll also play at Berlin venue Gretchen on April 20th. KMRU's last release was September's Dissolution Grip. He has gigs in Bristol, Sheffield, Manchester and Glasgow scheduled for next month. Listen to "Differ."Tracklist 01. Differences 02. Arkives 03. Difference 04. Ark 05. Differ 06. Arcs Phantom Limb will release Disconnect on June 14th, 2024.
