Slackk “Sleeper Carriage”

We’d never try and second guess R&S’s mind-bogglingly diverse A&Ring – but there’s been a thread of crisp, clever bass music on the label since the late 2000s that means the appearance of grime historian, Scouser-in-London and Boxed mainstay Paul Lynch aka Slackk makes absolute sense.
 
Backwards Light EP, his new six-tracker for them, touches, as ever, on bleak grime and Orientalist motifs, but it also brings his film soundtrack styling to the fore as on this downright stirring bit of sinister drama. When will we see Lynch score an actual movie, though?
