Stewart Walker - Scratched Notes EP

Cover

Curle · Curle 026 · Release date: Out Now!

We have the honour to present the first Curle from Stewart Walker, a longtime hero of ours. He started his career on the mythical Detroit label Matrix, did some stuff for Force Inc, Tresor, Mille Plateaux and Minus, before founding the amazing Persona imprint. Since then he has done very few releases on other labels, so we are very proud about this one. All three tracks on this EP live and breathe the deep melodic minimal sound Stewart Walker got known for, but - without wanting to brag too much - we really believe 'Scratched Notes' is among the very best music he has ever released.
