lsd: process

Luke Slater, Steve Bicknell, and Dave Sumner (Function) are LSD. Originally planned as a one-off closing set at Berghain in 2016, the trio develop their brand of lysergic machine music with their debut three-track 12" Process. "Process 1" immediately introduces overdriven and multi-layered kicks and hats, while a squelching synth-line writhes between distant sirens. "Process 2" picks up at a similar pace within a tunnel of high-pitched drones and warning signals panning across the stereo image. On "Process 3", a more spacious sonic landscape is soon filled with the bleeping sounds of emergency before veering off into more subdued territory.
