Review: The second release of Old Apparatus's Sullen Tone imprint sees the first of a trilogy in which a whole record is given over to a different member of the collective. It's still attributed to Old Apparatus, but the difference audible across Realise is stark; although opener "Chicago" still growls and lurches like the alternate reality dubstep of their previous releases, its piano riff and 4/4 beat references the house music of its namesake, while the percussion of "Found" rattles like a steampunk pinball machine. "Holding" meanwhile sounds like a combination of Druqks-era Aphex Twin and King Tubby dub, funnelling tight D&B breakbeats through cavernous brass, and closer "Realise" stacks layer upon layer of atmospheric pressure on its funereal clockwork motions.

Review: Since first appearing on Mala's Deep Medi in 2011, Old Apparatus have shown themselves to be one of the most interesting outfits operating at the fringes of dubstep, instrumental hip hop and ethereal electronic sounds. Last year saw the launch of their Sullen Tone imprint, which has since become the primary home of their recorded output, with four EPs showcasing the group's uniquely democratic approach, with one being attributed to the group and three to individual members, but all bearing the Old Apparatus name. Compendium sees the outfit collect highlights from those releases in one handy release, and acts as the ideal gateway for those yet to be entranced by their unique sound.
