So Low / Optimo

So Low is an occasional night in Glasgow run by Iona Fortune, JD Twitch, Katie Shambles and Becky Marshall. The third release on So Low is a 5-track EP from Ian Hicks, formerly one half of Soft Metals. Ian also appeared on our Now and Then compilation EP. Here he commands his own release and sets the synths to stun with 5 tracks of analogue waves ranging from the XTC bliss out of Character Collapse and Depths Of Psyche to the shockwave klang of Chemical Environments and Specter, perhaps leaving the very best to last with the ultimate hypno, sex slug groove of Continuous. Subliminal vocals. Wrecked drum boxes. Synths spiralling. Full colour picture sleeve designed by So Low collective member and acclaimed Glasgow artist Katie Shannon.
