Manchester’s Alex Lewis has been seen on a few local event posters over the last few years, but this is very much the man’s debut release. The striking part of it all is that it comes through courtesy of one of the UK’s most respected labels, the Boomkat-associated Modern Love. Turinn is the moniker he’s riding under, and this new album, 18 1/2 Minute Gasps, the exactly the sort of raucous, off-the-wall material that the imprint specialize in. “Ovum” sets the scene perfectly with its jittery succession of roughed-up drums and sporadic bass shots, a raw and improvisational technique that’s carried through on other dope joints like “Elba” or “1625” – the latter of which even tests the deep house waters with a little menace. It’s a prototypical dance-not-dance album; a masterful 10-track affair that’ll appeal to both the more gifted DJs, and the straight-up leftfield fiends. Excellent.
