We\u2019ve been shouting about corto.alto<\/a> for a while now, and with good reason. From his Mercury Prize-shortlisted Bad With Names<\/em>, which was one of our Albums Picks of 2023<\/a>, to the blistering 30\/108<\/em> project that saw him release 30 tracks in 30 days, Liam Shortall keeps moving forward without ever looking back. The Glaswegian trombone wizard and genre-defying powerhouse has joined the Ninja Tune<\/a> family and he’s marking the occasion with a scorching new single, \u2018DON\u2019T LISTEN\u2019.\u00a0 Clocking in as one of his most explosive and uncompromising works to date, the track hits hard with thick bass, warped vocals and sharp turns. “‘DON\u2019T LISTEN’ is a left turn for me into instinct over instruction,\u201d Shortall comments. \u201cI wrote this track as a call to blocking out the noise, ignoring creative conformity and embracing the freedom to do whatever the fuck you want.”<\/p>\n

The single also arrives with a visually wild video by Katie Sills, matching the music\u2019s untamed energy. Watch the video below.<\/p>\n
