…the imperative to physically engage listeners still lies at the heart of Vessel’s approach and is key to its essential appeal. Through all these channels, we’re witnessing a conscious disassembling of club genres. But as distinct from a similar process with IDM in the 90s, where human body rhythms were soon left behind in favour of increasingly alien alternatives, here it’s giving rise to new forms of equally exploratory but, crucially, still corporeally-minded electronic music. They’re yet to be named, which is almost certainly a good thing, but alongside Emptyset and Ekoplekz, Vessel and Young Echo are forming a Bristolian vanguard in this attack.
