Review by Lee Adcock

Where are we now? Where are we going? And are those truly dolphins climbing onto the shore?»

Buy now from:

Composers Mica Levi and Oliver Coates release Remain Calm, a collaborative album on Slip. Born out of an impromptu 2014 NTS session and built from fragments of Coates’ orchestral compositions and Levi’s electronics, Remain Calm embraces classical music, garage, grime, techno and more. The release only adds to what has been an incredibly productive year for both musicians. Earlier this year, Coates helped sculpt Radiohead’s latest LP, A Moon Shaped Pool, and released an album of his own, Upstepping. Over the same period Levi dropped the great Taz and May Vids on Demdike Stare’s DDS label and appeared on Arca’s most recent mixtape.
