Watch: Yearning Kru “Ximen Grin”

05 Jul 2013 — Henning Lahmann

After the label's exceptional latest offering Retakes courtesy of brilliant South London producer Orphan, patten's Kaleidoscope imprint is about to strike again with yet another cassette release arriving in a ridiculously small edition. The concept should be familiar by now: recorded straight to tape, none of the physical items put out sounds exactly like any other. This time coming as 23 unique C30 tapes (and as usual accompanied by a free-of-charge digital version), the fifth instalment of Kaleidoscope's LIMITED DUBS series is by Croydon-born producer Yearning Kru, now living in Taiwan. Judging from the first audio snippet that scores the expectably weird visuals below, patten continues to explore the most thoroughly hidden corners even of the already left field-indebted dancefloors of today – and we surely couldn't be more thankful for that.

Yearning Kru's Cracked Lacquer/Vanadium arrives July 23 at midnight, so keep an eye on this page.
