2026 repress. Since hard-snagging ears and feet in 2023 with 12"s for FELT and his own label, Guy Brewer's Carrier has become the go-to project for those who had almost given up on chasing this sort of ultra-subtle but vitally distinctive new permutations in dance music. For the past two years his unpredictable variations within a style have kept listeners all tip-toed and seat-edge with organizations of a finely chiseled percussive palette and smoldering ambient noise that distills the salient aspects and spirits of D&B, dub techno, and electro-acoustic music with utterly unique traction. In effect, he's enacted a clear leap of imagination and proprioception from previous work issued as part of Commix and solo as Shifted that only continues to reveal absorbing new fissures and hallucinatory psychoacoustics on this first album detail. Previewed at Berlin Atonal '25, Rhythm Immortal now sees Brewer tilt the project into slower, resoundingly atmospheric realms, better to luxuriate in the instinctive guile and integer-stepping style 'n pattern of his incredible sound. At the album's poles, a vocal cameo by cult gynoid Voice Actor follows from Gavsborg's on a preceding 7" single to ideally model his sound's mutability and compatibility with trip hop forms, and Memotone helps seal the deal with a hovering glow lent to "Offshore," whilst Carrier jostles the reins throughout with masterful control of his thing, crisply purposed to the album canvas. In that context it's perfectly adaptable to bodies supine or in motion.
