The follow up to post-industrial electronic duo Factory Floor’s 2013 debut LP is being released via DFA on 19th August. Entitled 25 25, the record has been mixed by David Wrench (who has worked with Caribou and FKA Twigs) and promises to shed Nik Void and Grabriel Gurnsey’s sound down to a mix of percussion, fragmented vocals and melodies. The pair have also shared one of the tracks, ‘Dial Me In,’ a slow-burning dance track with skittering hi hats and beats that gradually morphs in shape and intensity over time. Listen below.
Speaking of the single, Void said: “‘Dial Me In’ was the first track Gabe and I wrote together for this record. At this time we were both exploring new set ups – some unfamiliar gear like modular systems, as well as various machines combined with regular old stuff like my Roland sampler, live drums and effected live vocals.”
She continues: “Our shows between 2014-2015 were steadily moving towards late night club stompers, and gradually our tools were becoming more and more mobile within two Peli cases wheeled across the continent. We were forever testing out changing sets from one place to the next. This single is all about transition, adjustment and transparency – something we needed to get out there so that dots can be joined and the next page can be turned ready for 25 25.”
Live dates by the duo are expected to be announced soon.
