“Glasgow’s Helicon and Los Angeles-based producer and DJ Al Lover have joined forces on a bold new collaborative album, Arise, on Fuzz Club. “Arise confronts a culture of individualism at the mercy of opportunistic grifters,” says frontman John-Paul Hughes, “offering a reminder that empathy, compassion, and authenticity are still choices.” Reflecting that tension, Helicon and Al Lover deliver a maximalist, uplifting sound with a baggy, hypnotic pulse — fusing Helicon’s trademark psychedelia with Al Lover’s genre-bending electronics.”
