Ziur - U Feel Anything - VINYL LP

Ziúr's 2017 debut album for Planet Mu/Objects Limited 'U Feel Anything?' was widely praised. It was both maximal and graceful, thoughtful but physical music that came out of the 'anything goes' approach of certain club nights she was involved with in Berlin, and stood head and shoulders above other music coming out of the city's club scene. Since then Ziúr has clearly been working hard, and on 'ATØ' she has developed a sophisticated toolbox of sounds from which this album is produced.
