Description

Looking backwards and forwards all at once, drawing on influences from across every spectrum, “1982“, released by Mute, is an unpredictable record that will reward a dedicated listener dozens of times over.

Even by the A Certain Ratio’s high standards – which includes a gleeful disregard for boundaries of style and genre, their eye fixed firmly on constant movement forwards – their latest studio album “1982” is multidimensional. Recorded by the core ACR line up of Jez Kerr, Martin Moscrop and Donald Johnson, alongside Tony Quigley, Matthew Steele and Ellen Beth Abdi, it shoots off in every direction, whether via searing Afrobeat, mind-melting jazz breakdowns or moody electronic experiments.

And the album title? Although “1982” might conjure memories of the year that saw ACR put out both the acclaimed “Sextet” and the cult favourite “I’d Like To See You Again”, it’s more of a playful red herring than an invitation to nostalgia.
