Armed with a disdain for pastiche and a penchant for experimentalism, Rroxymore has spent the last decade pushing the boundaries of what constitutes club music. Across a steady stream of releases, the Berlin-based artist has continually reinvented her sound, shifting from hypnotic leftfield techno to UK bass mutations, genre-eschewing dub oddities and so much more.On Perpetual Now, her sophomore album, she again displays this propensity for pushing the sonic envelope. It's a slow-burning record, and one that blurs the lines between the electronic and the organic.Subverting the traditional album , Perpetual Now is made up of four extended soundscapes - each taking the listener on a journey through tempo, texture and emotional state. Downtempo opener 'At The Crest' gently sets things into motion, allowing the sparse percussion to tentatively find it's feet. 'Sun In C' is a peculiarly meditative excursion, crafting a rich, intoxicating atmosphere across it's nine minutes. 'Fragmented Dreams', with it's pulsating rhythms and fractured melodies, sees the album fleetingly burst into life, before 'Water Stain' winds things down in the most effortless of manners.A daring, unconventional album, Perpetual Now is everything we've come to expect and more from one of electronic music's most unique producers.French-born, Berlin-based DJ, sound artist and producer Rroxymore first emerged on the scene with 'Wheel of Fortune', a ten-minute epic released on Planningtorock's Human Level back in 2012. She has since put out music regularly, dropping her debut album Face To Phase in 2019, and more recently 'I Wanted More', a four-track EP that veered from downtempo ambience to rich deep house.

Limited colored vinyl LP pressing. Reissue, originally released in 2003. The first punk band from Peterborough, northwest of Cambridge, the Now spun off from the Faderz, with singer Mike McGuire, guitarist Steve Rools, drummer Joe MacColl, and bassist Paul Wicks, later replaced by Faz Farrow. Debut 45 Development Corporation charted, but the band split after Into The 80's; in 2002, German tag Last Year's Youth re-released the 45s, which led to Here Come The Now, where vintage songs share space with the re-formed band's new takes of earlier work, a best-of-both-worlds approach that puts everything together in one place. A must for all fans of the Now and lovers of intelligent British punk.
