Why it's here

Contact, Love, Want, Have gives Hyperdub's wonky period one of its brightest full-lengths. Ikonika's synth lines tilt between playful and melancholy while the rhythms keep slipping sideways, making it colorful without ever becoming lightweight. It opens on 'Ikonoklast (Insert Coin)' and closes on 'Look (Final Boss Stage)', and the arcade framing is load-bearing.
