Tessela (R&S Records, Poly Kicks) @ R&S Records Showcase - London (09.11.2013)
Russell has no plans to release this material as yet, but he's already used a similar setup in collaboration with his brother. Released under the TR // ER alias last year, "UC" explored the zone between the distorted intensity of MPIA3 and Tessela's rambunctious broken beats. Russell says the pair have been working on more material and hope to release an EP in the not-so distant future. Otherwise, his focus is on Poly Kicks. The label's next release will be another Tessela 12-inch, followed by remixes from Kowton and Truss/MPIA3. Russell aims to extend his hardcore-referencing aesthetic to all aspects of the label, from music through to artwork. It's important, he feels, that the imprint has something distinctive to contribute. "There's new labels starting up every day, and I'm aware that it's an incredibly over-saturated scene," he says. "But I've got to the point where I feel I have something genuinely worthwhile to contribute."
