Ever since hearing Pete Tong announce "Chica Wappa" as his Essential New Tune back in 2004, Huntleys + Palmers have been following the bold Alex Smoke (aka Wraetlic) on his musical journey. Coming from Glasgow, the label and the artist have shared a lot of common influences, both from within and of the city. The label has Alex to thank for introducing and strengthening their love for the likes of Villalobos, Rhythm & Sound, Carl Craig, and Actress, amongst others. Although he was a familiar face on the "minimal" scene, he always operated on his own terms and that's a through-line that's been much admired throughout his career. Not only is he comfortable releasing techno on Soma and R&S, he's produced for ballet, films and even the NHS. Over the years, Alex has played at a few seminal parties alongside the likes of Oni Ayhun, James Holden, Helena Hauff, and Veronica Vasicka. It was thus a delight to be approached by him to work on Ad Absurdum together and it's been really exciting to hear it evolve over time. It would be arrogant to compare it to Thom Yorke's The Eraser (2006), but it certainly occupies a similar world. To still be producing innovative and inspiring albums 15 years into a career is no mean feat in this age and it's a great honor to welcome such a musical hero on to the label. As with the last Auntie Flo album, there will also be a special remix package with a swarm of favored producers of the moment. 180 gram vinyl.
