Melburnian label Omelette celebrates its tenth anniversary with 16 new tracks of glitch hop instrumentals and downbeat carpet huggers.
It’s compiled by the perennially underrated Spoonbill, who casts a wide net and turns up some little known beauts, including Canadian Jpod’s meditative glider, Dusted Sunset, and the unhinged cyber-stalker Proto & The Dinosaur, from Hungary’s Fine Cut Bodies. That aside, Swarm Theory is for armchair listening rather than wanton ‘floor banging, and altogether makes for a handsome embodiment of the diverse strains that comprise 21st Century beat culture.
