Condition: Brand New Ships from: Melbourne Description Release details Tracklist SickElixir is Blawan’s 2025 full-length album, a fierce and immersive work that pushes the boundari es of industrial techno and experimental electronic music. Across fourteen tracks, producer Jamie Roberts combines heavy distortion, fractured beats and manipulated vocals to create a dark, tactile sound world. The record balances aggression with precision, unfolding like a constantly shifting machine—unpredictable, rhythmic and deeply physical. While its surface is abrasive, there’s also a strange beauty within the noise. Tracks like Rabbit Hole introduce brief flashes of melody and human texture that cut through the metallic density. SickElixir feels like the culmination of Blawan’s evolution from club producer to avant-garde craftsman, capturing both the chaos and catharsis of modern electronic music. Reviews “Gnarled grooves and unintelligible vocals intersect at uncanny angles on the British producer’s new album, which amplifies his pugnacious style into a brutish, unhinged gestalt.” — Pitchfork “Between relentless layering and mechanical rhythms, Blawan crafts moments of strange intimacy where swelling textures drop back into a pulsing beat – offering release from the distortion and disorienting atmosphere.” — DJ Mag “A blistering magnum opus from dance music’s most adventurous producer.” — Resident Advisor “Despite the overwhelmingly industrial sound, it would be facile to call SickElixir ‘dystopic’ when there’s so much pleasure at its heart … ‘NOS’ offers breathless, obsidian sensuality in its clubby beats.” — The Fader “This will hardly come as a shock … SickElixir is certainly a more varied album than Wet Will Always Dry … the album is also heavier going emotionally.” — The Guardian Genre: Electronic, Electronic Artist: Blawan Label: XL Recordings Format: LP Units: 1 Country: Europe Genre: Electronic Style: Breaks, Drum N Bass, Electro, Halftime, Idm A1 The Gl LightsA2 NosA3 Weirdos UnitA4 Rabbit HoleA5 WtfA6 CaschA7 Birf SongA8 During ElevationB1 Dont Worry We HappyB2 Style TeefB3 SonkindB4 Tcp BurnB5 Creature BrigadeB6 Sickelixir Show more
