In recent times, Luke Abbott has spent much of his creative life collaborating with others, forgoing what was a blossoming solo career in favour of joint projects. On Translate, he breaks this spell for the first time in six years, eschewing studio and live hook-ups in favour of solitary composition. The results are predictably impressive, with the Norfolk-based artist subtly updating his melodious, synthesizer-powered electronica sound whilst retaining the stylistic ticks and vintage IDM influences that made his earlier solo work such a riveting listen. The results are uniformly impressive to our ears, with highlights including the dense, rainbow-coloured rush of 'Ames Window', the synth-symphony that is foreboding, sci-fi inspired gem 'Earthship' and similarly doom-laden, Bladerunner-esque opener 'Kagen Sound'
