Right on the back of an EP with the Ragga Twins, dark, shadowy, murky, swampy, creepy, scary, smoky, “elusive,” and downright hard-to-find international collective LHF have announced their second LP, For The Thrown, through Dusk and Blackdown’s Keysound Recordings. It’s set for a July 10 release as a double-LP and digital download.
LHF includes Amen Ra, Double Helix, No Fixed Abode, Low Density Matter, Octaviour, Escobar Seasons, Solar Man, and Lumin Project. The eight live across London, Mumbai, Los Angeles, Rio De Janeiro, and New York City. Their first LP, Keepers Of The Light, noted by many as a real how-it’s-done dubstep record, came through Keysound as well. In fact, all of their releases have which makes sense given the label’s pirate-radio recollection/reinterpretation theme, luring such venturous souls and TMT favorites as Mumdance, Logos, and (yeah I guess) Burial, too.
Where Keepers Of The Light was a fairly even split between LHF’s eight members, For The Thrown features founding member Amen Ra on all 10 of its tracks, with two features by Octaviour and No Fixed Abode. Resident Advisor picked out Amen Ra for a little favo(u)rite record feature back in 2012. He picks out some broken-beat, some classic Goldie, some Ras G, some Cannibal Ox. The range of influence plays out colorfully on “Triumph,” a real “roller,” if you will, accented by steel drums, vintage bullet “pews,” and gravelly euphoric synths. The track has debuted through Boiler Room and is available for you to scrutinize right below, along with the album’s tracklist:
