2018, 12″, Scissor & Thread. Astonishingly, Minor Forms is Francis Harris’ first solo appearance on Scissor & Thread for four years – an astonishing fact when you consider that he was one of the label’s founders. Opener “Move We Cannot Do” is almost astonishingly deep, with Harris’s delicate melodies and undulating, cymbal-heavy rhythm track struggling to rise above enveloping chords and dub techno style aural textures. “Minor Forms” is a little chunkier and more bass-heavy, but still jaw dropping in its bluesy, late night deepness. Valentino Mora serves up two flipside interpretations of that track, first giving it a clanking, metallic techno makeover (the “Underwater Rephase”) before diving headfirst into dreamy dub techno waters (the “Cosmic Trans Rephase”).
