Satiating tastes for warehouse-worthy, nosebleed-inducing techno, Cambridge, U.K., resident Samuel Emerson Iliffe, a.k.a. ill Life, released his iLL Life EP on June 3 via Montreal imprint Infinite Machine, whose growing roster includes Liar, Borealis, Hound Scales, and Pixelord. With a penchant for warped sounds and machine-driven noise, he will be appreciated by fans of Perc or Blawan. The EP is available now via Bandcamp and includes remixes from Liar, Borealis, and Kommune1.
Well-matched to ill Life’s musical style, the video for “Go” (by Rafael Bucio) incorporates pulsating, grating geometries, dark, desaturated tones, and animé imagery. We’ve got the premiere below:
