Bad Ambulance returns to NM with ‘Possessor’. 2 tracks of hallucinated juke, vocal automations and warped polyrhythms - a tantalising follow up to last year’s breakthrough release ‘Intel 95’.

‘Possessor’ hisses and wriggles wildly into surprisingly hazy ecstasy, arpeggiating skyward, whilst retaining Melbourne/Naarm-based producer Jack Palmer’s trademark anxiety rhythms and minor key stress waves. Euphoric sheen pixelates into digitised, dripping horror movie foley in ‘Zero’, bringing to life a foreboding arrhythmic thump at mid tempo. Phrases of softly mathematical rhythms escalate Palmer’s neon tension strategies; alarms are raised, phased sawtooth signals flatline through the wooze. And what’s more, this overwhelming robotic ecology seems to stare blankly over our heads while it scares the shit out of us - inexplicably austere as it teeters on the brink of collapse.
