The drum and bass chart-topping artist, CURRENT VALUE, whose tunes are often a staple of Aphex 
Twin’s performances, returns to METHLAB RECORDINGS with his SENEX LP, which features twenty 
one of his most technical and innovative sonic works on the like-minded label. A twin release with its 
more upfront & riotous cousin PUER delivered via Souped Up Recordings, SENEX displays its half of 
the CURRENT VALUE sound with an expansive array of sonic sequences marked by their forward 
thinking sonic character and the singular timbres for which CURRENT VALUE is known. 

 


Early in the album’s span come the glittering arpeggios of MEGACITY, which filter downwards above 
the bassline pursuit that plays out beneath their fluttering rays. Further in, DISMANTLE deconstructs 
a set of classic rhythms before reshaping them within the milieu of its hazy pads under the pressure of 
its mechanical low frequency generator. An elysian piano melody wafts through the opening 
percussion of FRIENDLY TAKEOVER and therein masks the brutalist companion frequencies that 
await within the track’s second section. 

 

ACCESS POINT surges within a stream of bitcrushed binary 
at the albums third quarter, and opens the way for the enigmatically warped sonics that course 
through the albums final sections and flow within the depths of it’s voidborne closing track, CRYSTAL 
BALL. 


With SENEX, CURRENT VALUE delivers one half of his joint 11th and 12th albums as he explores 
his most experimental sonic leanings
