Groundislava’s self-titled debut last year was one of JUICE‘s Best Electronic Album of 2011, and for good reasons. It succeeded where other beat scene-alumni failed, it features actual glimpses of song composition as opposed to Dilla-esque haphazard torrent of ideas thrown into a single ephemeral beat. As dedicated of a chiptune album it is, the debut is never stagnant. Often time its 8-bit nostalgia segues to hip hop-informed beats before being married to (but never marred by) unforced vocal contributions.

Recently Jasper Patterson (aka Groundislava) has announced the follow-up long play to his debut. Entitled Feel Me, the LP is due out on 28 August this year on FoF Music. Billed as a “mature step” for Groundislava (whose father is director of A-Ha’s classic music video ‘Take On Me’), Feel Me features the likes of another one of our favourite recent electronic acts, Baths, along with Clive Tanaka, Houses, Shlohmo, and Jake Weary.
