About This File
Fans of Clark rejoiced when he announced the release of his self-titled album in September.
His seventh in total - the first being 'Clarence Park' in 2001 - the Berlin-based producer once again steps out for the Warp Records team with an LP teeming with abrasive textures and brutal beats, yet still leaving space for glowing melodies and harmonious synth calls. 'Winter Linn' rattles hard like a pneumatic drill, while 'The Grit In The Pearl' encapsulates its title perfectly, finding a balance between rugged kicks and shining, eyes-wide-open euphoria.
Listen to all of his albums and EPs and you'll come across all sorts. Chiseled techno, abstract electronica, drone and dreamy lo-fi soundscapes are just a handful of elements in his work. With every single one of his releases coming on Warp in 13 years, it's no surprise he has so much scope for musical freedom and this has without doubt contributed to him being one of the most forward-thinking, innovative producers in British electronic music.
With his album out now, he's stepped up for this week's In Session. As with his release history, this mix doesn't just conform to one sound or genre. Floaty and delicate in places, but tough and mechanical in others, Clark's offered a real treat with tracks from Leon Vynehall, Seven Davis Jr, Truss and a bunch of unreleased cuts from himself.
