===== The Rip-Off Artist - swinging new LP and 12" endorsements, plus new recordings slated. Einoma - Earth-shattering new album imminent. Corker/Conboy in the studio and writing for Bomb The Bass. Something clandestine from Sixtoo. The season of mists and mellow fruitfulness is upon us once more - time to remind you what's been cooking chez Vertical Form over the summer and a sneak preview of some auditory delights to be unveiled from VF's new Curtain Road nerve-centre over the coming months. LA's wittiest art/House exponent Matt Haines - aka the Rip-Off Artist - has been wowing all and sundry with both his astonishing new Pet Sounds long-player (released September 15th) and the mightily catchy Little Tiny 1/8" Jack 12" (now back in stock - with an extended dancefloor-magnetizing mix of the A-side to boot). Currently reaching for the ROA discs at the peak of their Saturday night sets are esteemed turntable toreadors like Andrew Weatherall, Ivan Smagghe, Trevor Jackson, Optimo and Richie Hawtin. Need we say more? Well, yes, actually. Look at these press verdicts on the Rip-Off Artist's Pet Sounds masterpiece: "No one else sounds quite like this and that's more than enough reason to tip your hat to a record that becomes more intriguing with each listen" (Jockey Slut) "This is no clicks and cuts intervention: it's full scale House hijacking" (The Wire) "A Record of great charm" (The Independent) The Rip-Off Artist has extensive live plans for later in the year, but in the meantime he's playing Tokyo's Star Pine's Café, Kihijoji, on October 4th. http://warszawa.co.jp will furnish the details. Mr Haines is currently working on music for release on his own label and has an EP on Platinum Projects (via XL Recordings) slated for December 1st release. Iceland's next-big-thing, tectonic electronicists Einoma are set to follow up last year's critically lauded Undir Feilnotum debut with a brand new album. Presently awaiting an exact street date, but earmarked for the end of '03, Milli Tonverka is a jaw dropping cocktail of digital envelope-pushing and beauteous ambient tranquility that is set to send seismic tremors across the world of electronica. Ever-active duo Adrian Corker and Paul Conboy are in the throes of their usual hectic schedule which, working on their second Corker / Conboy album, collaborating with John Mathias of Accidental / Herbert fame whilst moonlighting as writers for the upcoming Bomb The Bass album. Expect the fruits of these protean labours sometime in '04. Finally, whispers from Halifax, Nova Scotia lead us to believe that Canadian alt.hop maestro and all round genre-mangler par excellence Sixtoo has something very, very tasty up his sleeve for our mutual and universal edification. Stay tuned for this and other hot news from Vertical Form central. In the meantime check out these exemplary recent VF releases.
