Planet Mu label boss and veteran electronic artist Mike Paradinas (a.k.a. µ-Ziq) has been gradually ramping his production presence back up in 2013, releasing a compilation of old material, a collaborative LP with his wife as Heterotic, and the first proper µ-Ziq release in years, the XTEP EP. As we should’ve guessed, this was all leading up to the announcement of Paradinas’ eighth LP. The 14-track Chewed Corners album will arrive almost six years after the last official µ-Ziq long-player, 2007’s Duntisbourne Abbots Soulmate Devastation Technique, on June 25. The producer says his new record is meant to “evoke drama and emotion,” with its influences ranging from one-time collaborator Aphex Twin, Orbital, and Art of Noise to more contemporary acts like Rustie, Planet Mu signee Kuedo, those of Chicago’s footwork scene. Before Chewed Corners is released this summer, its artwork and tracklist can be found below.
