"Deceptively simple, enormously catchy modern electro, eschewing
fashionable digital trickery for good old analog skills" XLR8R

TITLE: Grey With Breaks
Suction058 vinyl LP / CD / digital full-length
RELEASE DATE: May 5, 2023
After a recent, acclaimed EP on Madrid’s Analogical Force label, Suction Records is thrilled to announce “Grey With Breaks,” the 8th full-length album by Lowfish. The electro veteran, who’s been programming 808s since the early ‘90s, returns to Suction Records, the label he co-founded and debuted on in 1997. “Grey With Breaks” is an electro record, with thick analog basslines and TR-808 boom tschak front & centre, but Lowfish’s electro-style stands out from the pack. Not only is the LP devoid of the Drexciya/Dopplereffekt worship that permeates the scene these days, it also rarely hits above 110bpm, oozing with melancholic melody.
The 9-track vinyl LP comes housed in a stunning reverse-board jacket, and is limited to 400 copies, with 100 copies on CLOUDY-GREY-VINYL. The CD, in a reverse-board digipack, is expanded to 19 tracks, adding previously-vinyl-only cuts from past Suction Records singles and EPs “Hello Tinnitus” (suction023), “C.D.S.N.” (suction038), and “Hypersensitivity” (suction046).
