About "Sordid" by Amon Tobin
Amon Tobin's 'Sordid' is a masterclass in grimy texture—sampled debris and low-end rot swirling into a beautifully unclean whole. The title promises something illicit, and the track delivers: a slow-motion chase through a rain-slicked alley of broken jazz and clipped percussion. Ninja Tune Retrospect captures the dirt under the fingernails.
