Factory Floor Between You

Factory Floor return with their first new material since 2018, joining Erol Alkan’s Phantasy Sound imprint with a new single, ‘Between You’. Fifteen years since their formation, Factory Floor remain one of the most distinctive acts that the UK’s underground electronic scene has produced, channeling post-industrial, acid, rock and minimal influences into their deeply physical work. Building on a rapturously received performance at the 2024 edition of Mutek Montreal, ‘Between You’ captures the hypnotic, rejuvenated interplay of Gabe Gurnsey and Nik Colk Void, alongside additional percussion from touring member Joe Ward, recorded in the studio by Stephen Morris of New Order.

Recorded between the North-West and Norfolk, Factory Floor’s distance has not dulled their essential defiance; ‘Between You’ revisits and evolves the band’s auspicious beginnings on a now-lost London warehouse scene, creating essential music with a singular, DIY mentality. Regrouping in the face of a more gentrified, codified landscape, the duo refuses to submit. Here, as Gurnsey’s man-machine drumming tumbles across Void’s razor-sharp synthesis, the desire to dance, the need for release, feels as potent as before.

'Between You' arrives digitally and on a limited-edition vinyl press of just 300 housed in handmade riso-printed sleeves.
