Kuedo Vinyl, CD & tapes by Kuedo at Norman Records

Kuedo has left a hefty five years in between the release of his debut full-length album Severant and this follow-up. Slow Knife has a sleek, neon-city-at-night kind of feel, with stuttering trap percussion and glassy synths everywhere. But there are also contributions from cellist Koenraad Ecker and Wild Beasts singer Hayden Thorpe. A highly atmospheric trip on Planet Mu.
