Due to unforeseen circumstances, Tri Angle Records released Harbored Mantras,
the debut album by San Franciscan duo Water Borders, on CD, LP and
digitally, earlier than expected - on 10/10 (UK) and 10/11 (US) to be
exact.
Primarily
inspired by their lifelong passion for 80s industrial legends Coil and
the kind of underground UK dance productions often heard on Rinse FM, Harbored Mantras
is a dense and dizzying soundworld; a dank, tribal and often
disorientating dance record which, as the two piece state was intended
to be, "a coalescence of digital and analog sounds and textures."
As well as looking to Coil and the UK dance scene for inspiration Harbored Mantras
also incorporates a vast array of Water Border's influences including
Gamelan rhythms, proto techno, Scott Walker, African drum patterns, dub,
Popul Vuh and Glasser, who actually designed the artwork for the album.
To see what we mean for yourself, head over to The Fader, where Harbored Mantras
is streaming in full. Additionally, FACT Magazine is hosting the
premiere is Manchester producer Damu's remix of Harbored Mantras cut
"What Wiwant", while Pitchfork is has the premiere of Ital's take on the
track. Listen to all below.
