Plug Back On Time
Plug - Back On Time
(CD/2xLP/2xLP + Ltd Ed 12"/Digital) Ninja Tune ZEN177, 2012-01-09

The new album & a lost classic from Plug, aka electronic icon Luke Vibert, Back On Time is a collection of unreleased eccentric d'n'b tracks recorded over 15 years ago. Released on Ninja Tune on 9th January 2012 (24th January in N.America), it follows the highly-acclaimed Plug album from 1996, Drum 'n' Bass for Papa which was originally released by Blue Planet Recordings. Sounding brand new as well as being an uncovered gem, Back On Time is a release that anybody interested in the progression of dance music should be very curious to hear and enjoy. We had published a

Wagon Christ - Toomorrow - out on Ninja Tune

Wagon Christ Toomorrow
Wagon Christ - Toomorrow
(2LP/CD/Download) Ninja Tune ZEN163/ZENCD163/ZENDNL163, 2011-03-14

The one and only Luke Vibert returns to the fray under his most celebrated and wondrous moniker, Wagon Christ (to clarify, he is not under a wagon. Nor on one. Nor is he, strictly speaking, Christ, though we can't rule out his messianic status). The king of stoned exotica, ridiculous vocal samples, toothsome puns, swinging rhythm and the psychedelic groove, Vibert has never been one to take himself too seriously, but his music continues to delight.

With recent releases on both Planet Mu and Rephlex, Luke Vibert remains one of the key players in the scene that developed out of Cornwall and the West Country in the mid-nineties. Toomorrow is a funny, clever, swinging, moving reminder of why.
