about

Deep below the murky depths of South London’s clad cement footpaths lay a dormant strain of sound, slower, sludgy, dripping clastic eras fused into a 2025 neurotic composition of organic euro rack machinery. This unearthed excavation is led by Jack Reardon - a well versed songwriter in previous project incarnations - now presenting his latest output under Leaches - an experimental electronic project featuring Alex Hollingsworth as live session member and co-producer. We could not be more excited to welcome the project to Power Station with the first self titled ep Leaches [PS019].

Just as the track titles suggest of prehistoric times, ‘Pangaea’ starts the EP with fractured kicks, swirling cut up voices chaotically unearthed, reassembled, and adapting to a new sonic climate. It’s a reconstruction of something ancient, revealing unexpected proximity to the present.

On ‘Mammoth’, Leaches fuses the chaos of micro organic vocal chops with industrial precision. Half-time rhythms and distorted kicks drive a churning, IDM-inflected landscape that feels both primal and machine-born — a resurrection of lost forms in motion.

Lastly ‘Icarus’ closes the EP with an extended trance state intro. A singular pad rises, evolves, slowly building, reaching for the skies and just while soaring through the upper layer of the sonic atmosphere, resistance hits and you start hurtling to earth, grounding oneself back to Mother Nature in a fitting mythos metaphor of the risks of flying too close to the sun.

Leaches situates itself between post-industrial intensity and experimental introspection — a debut that bridges prehistoric imagination with contemporary electronic experimentation.

For fans of: Giant Swan, Four Tet, Yazzus, Daniel Avery.
