Shit and Shine - 2222 and AIRPORT

The state51 Conspiracy is very excited to announce Shit and Shine’s new album, ‘2222 and AIRPORT’, out now.

Shit and Shine (Craig Clouse) is an Austin-based electronic artist, although you’ll have a difficult time defining exactly the genre his music fits into. These days releases mainly fall into two separate categories: the extreme metal-adjacent and electronic dance music-adjacent.

In the 19 years since Craig Clouse co-founded this singular project he has amassed what can now comfortably be referred to as a Body Of Work. That is: 28 albums – although that will have risen to at least 31 by the end of this year – plus nine EPs, three 7”s, two cassettes and three splits, that ostensibly cover a multitude of styles, from grindcore to R&B, from techno to krautrock, from noise rock to dubstep, from industrial to jazz. We say ostensibly, because not a single one of this multitude of tracks will sound anything like a genre purist would expect or even want them to.

Clouse explains: “Ultimately I really just want to make electronic dance-based music. It’s what I’d like to be mostly known for making – it’s what I concentrate on most and it’s what I want to get good at most.”

‘2222 and AIRPORT’, named for an intersection close to his home, manages to defy all usual EDM strictures. The album opens with a skeletal modern funk – an almost bracingly minimalist sound – but the overall style evaporates when you try and nail it down. Acid house, minimal techno, electro, funk, krautrock, hip hop, found sound, spoken word, live percussion and industrial are blown apart and then reassembled over 13 tracks in a way peculiar to Clouse. So the record feels like a Shit And Shine classic even if it doesn’t quite sound like anything else that’s come before.
