Having previously kept his pet project Bintus on the Power Vacuum homestead, Milo Smee aligns with UAE label Bedouin for the superbly named Reincarnated Savage EP. While there can often be a slightly scary amount of distortion shaping out the Bintus sound, the lead track on the record is finely honed, pummelling electro of the highest order, albeit with plenty of unhinged noises zipping around in the mix. Fear not red-line lovers, for there's still ample room for overloaded madness on the flipside by way of balancing out the release. Smee's effort lands in the midst of a flurry of activity for Bedouin, who have put out some great sounds this year from Healing Force Project, Ekman and many more besides. And yes, the killer artwork is by Skull Disco designer and all round aesthete Zeke Clough!
