Corker Conboy x Purelink
Ambient Techno 3-piece Purelink rework downbeat charmers from longtime faves Corker/Conboy, on the first in a retrospective series focussed on their works for onetime pioneering label Vertical Form.
Corker/Conboy were behind a string of sanguine home listening records that characterised the era’s ambient zeitgeist, keen on intricate but fluid post--rock dynamics, merged with a kind of "drift" aesthetic defined by The Durutti Column. Their 2002 album 'In Light Of That Learnt Later' was a bit of a pivotal record for us back in the day - and still holds up - especially if yr into that whole weather station vibe that seems to be hitting the spot again for many, They’ve now minted the Bad Info label to present Stephan Mathieu’s remasters of decades-old highlights from their catalogue, backed with updates by youngers who chime with the sound.
Following a resoundingly acclaimed album, Purelink prove ideal candidates to reframe the title tune of that classic album, smudging its edges to a gauzily viscous flow, accentuating the fretwork for a harmonic float that sweetly contrasts with Corker/Conboy’s original strokes of acoustic guitar and lilting production on the flip, very much in a mode that followers of Tortoise et al will appreciate, and one that highlights the project's connection to Chicago, where Purelink are from.
