Steve Hadfield - Industrial Chillout Complex (2024)

Welcome to the world of chillout music for factory robots!

Accomplished electronic musician, producer and record label owner Steve Hadfield has drawn on his considerable knowledge of industrial techno and late 90's/early 2000s IDM to create an astonishing LP full of mechanical groove, smothered in swirls of distortion that would make Kevin Shields nod in approval.

Industrial Chillout Complex finds the delicious blend of overdriven sledgehammer beats with precise, friendly melodies, especially in the 6/8 prettiness of 'Circuit Bored', which Steve's young daughter, still a toddler, helped with its creation, and the insatiable mechanical groove of 'Clunk' is infectious, pretty and brimming with distorted, robotic funk.
