Kevin Richard Martin & Pedro Maia - Frequencies For Leaving Earth Vol. 4 (One-Hour Loop)

Back in 2020 producer Kevin Richard Martin, best known for his work as The Bug and with Techno Animal and King Midas Sound, started a new record label, Intercranial Recordings. Responding in kind to extremely dark times with equally dark sounds, he inaugurated the new imprint with a volley of solo albums, Frequencies for Leaving Earth Volumes One to Five.
