Can founding members Jaki Liebezeit and Irmin Schmidt formed a collaborative project with Burnt Friedman and Jono Pomdore called Cyclopean. As the release blurb reads, “the title provides a metaphor for the music: Cyclopean forms are beautiful, massive and intriguing structures that interlock, intersect and connect seemingly contradictory components”.<\/p>\n

Mute will be releasing their self-titled debut EP on February 4th. The EP will be available on 12″ vinyl and digitally, and you can pre-order it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here’s what the blurb says about the EP:
\n“Heavy, yet light, powerful, subtle, intriguing and playful. There’s also a flavour of the ancient in this music – an artefact from a sophisticated pre-culture perhaps. Extraordinary instrumentation – rubber band guitar, theremin, prepared piano – is unified through the monumental and unique drum patterns, as the characters of the four players are at once individually unmistakably and irrevocably intertwined.”<\/p>\n

‘Fingers’ is Cyclopean’s debut track, listen to it beneath.<\/p>\n
