Brainfeeder are repressing some more classic (and long sold-out) Iglooghost material from 2019 on limited edition grey marbled vinyl.
Steel Mogu and Clear Tamei are Iglooghost‚Äôs back-to-back EP follow-ups to his acclaimed full-length debut Ne≈ç Wax Bloom. As ever, the releases are bundled with multimedia storyline material that feed into Iglooghost‚Äôs ever-expanding narrative – giving longtime fans their first glimpse into the primordial era of the Mamu dimension. Although paired in format, the dual EPs draw from different corners of Igloo‚Äôs influences. Steel Mogu is a hyperspeed collage of synthetic, trance-influenced synths contorting around violent, mutating 808s – whilst Clear Tamei channels lavish string quartets and melancholic, fictional classical instruments.
The double features are set in Mamu, 3000 years prior to the events of Ne≈ç Wax Bloom. We are introduced to a young, see-through, god in-training named Tamei. Although gifted, he and his little cohorts resent their fate of becoming Grid G√∂ds – and find themselves wound up in a hyperspeed, cross-temporal battle with a fleet of mysterious, round beings.
