Purelink at The White Hotel, Paris

Grey Lantern hosts an exciting evening with Purelink, marking their debut in the Manchester/Salford scene. The trio, composed of Tommy Paslaski (Concave Reflection), Ben Paulson (kindtree), and Akeem Asani (Millia), has carved out a distinctive niche since their formation in 2020. Their sound blends elements of '90s drum 'n bass and dub techno, showcased in their debut 12" 'Bliss / Swivel'. Their 2023 full-length album, 'Signs', further explores the interplay between vaporous jazz influences from Chicago and textured post-rock motifs, creating a sound that is both reflective and vibrant.

As they prepare to unveil new material from their upcoming album, 'Faith', scheduled for release in 2025, Purelink pushes the boundaries of electronic music. Their work seamlessly incorporates live instrumentation and raw vocals within a framework of dubbed ambience and intricate rhythmic experimentation. The White Hotel, known for its raw aesthetic and connection to the underground scene, will provide an ideal backdrop for this sonic exploration, making it a fitting venue for Purelink's innovative sound.
