    _______________________________

    Myoptik’s first full-length album for The Centrifuge sees him take a skewed and propulsive look at aerial combat past, present and future. Night Raidz is a surging attack on the senses; rich with emotion and disorientation. Simultaneously putting the listener inside the fractuous, strobing mind of the pilot, the bomber, the night warden and the looter, Night Raidz is a blitz of sonic aerial manouevring, of exhilaration, tension and man-made destruction.

    Catch Myoptik supporting Icarus in Leicester on 21st April.

    Tracklist:
    1. Bombz Away
    2. Berlin
    3. Revelry Under Fire
    4. Night Raidz
    5. Dog Fight
    6. The Bunker
    7. Street Fighter

    5. Where Am I Gonna Be (Data Out Chowder Mix)
    6. Before The Grave (Shrimpsalad Narrative Mix)

    Release Notes:
    For Myoptik’s 3rd Centrifuge EP we have something a little different. Where the first two EPs gave a vague nod to accepted electronic forms (albeit through a mangle of madness), this time we have a diverse range of narratives from an obtuse mind. The artist’s intention here is to question accepted styles, presenting an attitude from beyond and without. There are half a dozen audio slices celebrating the fertility of limitation and the prospect of future limitlessness. It’s all about irreverent audio stimulation with a message of vitality: music that shows a tenacious thirst for life with stupid combinations that help to question, to open up towards the unknown future.
    Included remixes from Shrimpsalad and Data Out give a window into what it would be like if Myoptik wasn’t so awkward and obtuse. Where he puts familiar sounds into confused and unfamiliar settings, the remixers pull them back from the brink so you can grab them with both hands. So come, take your gloves off, dive in…
