Vessel - a Bristol producer and a member of the city's Young Echo collective - makes music that sits on the outer reaches of techno, coloured by modular sounds and extreme dub FX. He released a debut album, 'Order of Noise', through Tri Angle back in 2012 to much acclaim, and since then he's put out bits and pieces through labels like Left Blank and Liberation Technologies.
He's now got a new album lined up for release with Tri Angle in September titled 'Punish, Honey'. A press release tells us that the album was born from a wish to move away from "archetypal electronic sounds" to make something "that felt more organic, even if the sounds themselves didn't always feel inherently organic". This comes from Vessel's interest in natural sounds and how the physical body affects sound - "whether it be harsh or pure, messy, violent, seductive, or strange." Some of the noises on 'Punish, Honey' include sheets of metal as percussion, sawn up bikes as flutes, and crudely-built guitars made by hand.
The album is also about national identity, for some reason, and with it Vessel wants to ask, "What does ‘Englishness’ in music really mean?"
