Glass (LP)

Ryan Hunn, also known as producer and DJ Illum Sphere, returns to Ninja Tune with his second full-length, 'Glass'. 'Glass' is fittingly his most crystal-clear statement to date, stretching nine dynamic but focused tracks which are given room to shapeshift within a larger, living whole.

'Glass' follows 2014's Ghosts of Then and Now as the producer's second full-length effort, but sonically moves further in the direction hinted by his 'Spectre Vex' and 'Second Sight' 12"s and well-received mixes for fabriclive and Dekmantel. The reduction in output over this time a conscious decision to carefully signpost a change in direction. This same shift has also bled into his acclaimed DJ sets - that have previously won him fans in Thom Yorke and Ben UFO and many more.

'Glass' is a record steeped in mechanical depth and a beating cohesiveness, reminiscent of contemporaries Helena Hauff and Kassem Mosse, and positioning the industry's best kept secret- Illum Sphere-to have a breakout year all of his own.
