First up in Nicolas Bougaïeff’s ‘EP1’ is 'Primal Express', in which he returns to NovaMute for their next wave of releases with layers of synth lines and drum funk. It’s the first instalment in a three-part series on the Mute offshoot and is a work of minimalism. The psychedelic 'Obviate Thought' contains drums overlaid with sounds that pan throughout the mix in tripped-out fashion.
