Vertia vinyl

Comprised of well established Philadelphia pair Kenneth_Lay and V. Hold, Metasplice came to wider attention in 2012 with the release of the Topographical Interference EP on Rabih Beaini's Morphine label, a relationship which has continued with a further single and the Infratracts album released last year. Part of a loose group of producers in the city weaving noise and techno into genuinely alien musical forms, the duo's collective output has also spanned various solo and collaborative projects for labels like The Trilogy Tapes, Further Records and local Philadelphia label Great Circles. True to the label's reputation as one that prefers to eschew the press machine in favour of simply putting out records when they're ready, a new two track Metasplice shredder on Morphine has arrived and expands on their mind bending brand of experimental bleed laden techno. Both "Vertia" and "Tiled Eights" draw from a palette of ocean deep, modular paranoia that rewards the real freaks.
