EVENIFUDONTBELIEVE
Dialing back the guest-studded crossover material of 2014’s *Green Language*, Scottish producer Russell Whyte returns to the blown-out, blindingly energetic electronics that made 2011’s *Glass Swords* a modern classic. A dense, highly carbonated rush, *EVENIFUDONTBELIEVE* blends the muscle of dubstep and rhythmic swing of trap-rap with early-\'90s English techno. All of it is given an acid neon gloss—the soundtrack to a particularly treacherous video game, maybe, or something for our robot overlords to relax to.
The Glasgow producer Rustie surprise-released EVENIFUDONTBELIEVE, his third full-length, last week. It is a rawer, scrappier record than either of his prior LPs, and the way he flips the bird at conventional notions of fidelity is almost punk.

Surprise Rustie records aren't as great as they sound. But hey, could be worse.
