Blawan releases new single “Rabbit Hole,” the track is off his forthcoming album SickElixir, available October 10 via XL Recordings. Written between Berlin, Leeds, Paris, and Lisbon, SickElixir is Blawan’s most personal work to date; a manifesto that has seen him channel grief, family trauma, and seismic life shifts. SickElixir builds on his recent EPs – BouQ, Dismantled Into Juice, and Woke Up Right Handed – and plunges deep into Blawan’s chaotic crafted sonic world.

Jamie Roberts draws from his teenage influences growing up in Barnsley, a post-industrial town in South Yorkshire. At 14, he started working on a maggot farm and credits the clanging sound of the farm’s industrial mincer as an early influence on his music. After playing in various metal bands, Roberts’ musical horizons began to expand through visits to the West Indian Centre in Leeds, where he was introduced to the full spectrum of electronic music. He first emerged as Blawan at the turn of the 2010s with EPs on cult labels such as Hinge Finger and Hessle Audio.
