I’ve been impressed, even stunned, with Lorn’s latest Ninja Tune release called Ask the Dust. It’s dense, heavy, thick, and unyielding in its intensity. Weigh Me Down is the latest track with a single, and the video accompanying it is something else.

Nerd Show on Groovement – September 6, 2012
I approached Jamie over at Groovement.co.uk about doing a mix for him after listening to and very much enjoying a number of his personal and guest mixes over the last twelve months or so. He gratefully accepted and I pounded together a quick mix of what I’d really enjoyed about the first eight months of 2012 and this mix represents that in many ways.
Please have a listen!
