5) SCALER - Loam / New Symbols 

 

 

News from Bristol, UK experimental electronic noise - punk - techno band... 

 

Bristol four-piece SCALER (fka SCALPING) have shared a new single titled “LOAM” which was produced by critically acclaimed electronic musician and DJ, Daniel Avery. Alongside the single the band have also announced details of a headline UK tour for November 2023. 

The new single “LOAM” also marks a new chapter for SCALER. Having connected with one another following the release of their highly praised 2022 debut album “Void”, the band’s collaboration with Daniel Avery sees the band lean further into their club and dance-based influences. Combining adrenaline fuelled rhythms with euphoric synths that ebb and flow around their heavier sensibilities. Speaking on the single, SCALER says "When the opportunity to work with Daniel Avery came up we obviously jumped at it; we’ve been fans of his for a long time and working on these tracks with him really helped us be more decisive, to trust our gut and not overcomplicate things." Produced by SCALER and Daniel Avery Additional production by Manni Dee Mixed by Manni Dee and SCALER
