Purported glitch hop imprint Lab Beat is actually starting to get old, and still has not released anything strictly glitch hop. Some seriously sideways sounds are however provided in six releases by Actionfist, Fizzarum, HipGnosis, Master Eveleigh and Rose Specs.

HipGnosis is down with Lab Beat! With his clinical, woozy, bassy Scientific Illuminism (Is For Sissies), embarking in a different direction, more usually working with some remarkable vocalists, including Corn Tha Coon, Duckman, Ill Will, Krukid, L-Ement, Nautic and J-Vishus.

Scientific Illuminism (Is For Sissies)

Fizzarum: How Nature Works (Digital)
How Nature Works
Proudly presenting a digital re-release of some beauties by the very lovable and celebrated Fizzarum. How Nature Works fuses pastoral, Russian folk-inspired melody with clicky, glitchy bits and lush ambience. Better than Autechre and at least as good as Murcof.

Rose Specs: Glitch Style Forays
Glitch Style Forays
Traversing the realms of contemporary digital jazz, glitchy electronica and hop. Tracks are infused with a rosy warmth while retaining a penetrating quality. Its a bit like fine wine. From a lab. Influences include Flanger, Burnt Freidman, Atom Heart, Herbie Hancock, Triosk, Prefuse 73 and Freeform.

Actionfist: Fisticuffs
Fisticuffs
A superbly entertaining and genuinely musical vision of varying styles. Quirky works of glitch hop, jungle and noise. The sound is highly dynamic, unpredictable and beautifully produced. It is even spectacular to look at, blessed with cover art by Version.
