Burial and Kode9 reunite for Phoneglow / Eyes Go Blank, a two-track single that continues their exploration of haunting, futuristic soundscapes. Phoneglow opens with crackling textures and Burial’s signature ghostly vocal manipulations, layered over skittering beats and a woozy, late-night atmosphere. The track feels both nostalgic and futuristic, evoking a sense of isolation yet pulsing with distant energy.
On the flip side, Eyes Go Blank leans more into Kode9’s sci-fi club aesthetics, with glitchy percussion and disorienting synth flourishes. It’s a restless, shape-shifting track, full of sudden shifts and eerie melodic fragments that never quite settle. The interplay between the two artists is evident, blending Burial’s shadowy moods with Kode9’s jittery, forward-thinking approach.
Both tracks embrace an abstract, cinematic quality, relying more on mood and texture than traditional structures. The single captures the eerie, nocturnal essence of their past collaborations but feels looser, more improvisational. There’s a dreamlike quality to the sound design, as if drifting between fragmented memories of past UK club nights.
While Phoneglow / Eyes Go Blank may not break entirely new ground, it reinforces Burial and Kode9’s ability to create immersive, otherworldly music. It’s a release that rewards deep listening, revealing new details with each play. Fans of their past work will find plenty to appreciate, while newcomers may be intrigued by its ethereal, shape-shifting nature.
