A compelling debut from Rainer Veil (the Manchester-based duo of Liam Morley and Dan Valentine) on the esteemed Modern Love label.

Struck unfolds over five tracks, channeling a re-wired jungle aesthetic through tape-treated bass, glitch-ridden percussion, and polyrhythmic textures. Standout cuts like the title track “Struck” and the emotive “Wade In” traverse alien funk and introspective ambiance, closing with the hazy dissolution of “Yield.”

This EP emerged from radical deconstruction—original structured songs were dismantled, re-sampled, and reborn into abstract electronic forms.
