Ikonika - Contact, Want, Love, Have [CD]

After a string of 12s on Hyperdub over the last couple of years starting with the now classic 'Please' in 2008, Contact, Want, Love, Have is the debut album from Sara Abdel-Hamid a.k.a Ikonika.Contact, Want, Love, Have doesn't mess around or waste a note as she colors in and then discards the rulebook. Maybe it's her background as a drummer in a post hardcore band, her love of r'n'b and hip hop that bring in that extra that makes her music stand out from the legions. Or maybe its just her ear for a odd melody. While on the face of it the album seems to traverse a number of retro-futurist styles, including dubstep, uk funky and garage, 80s synth pop and computer game soundtracks, it re-mains totally contemporary, coherent and focused, making the idea of restraining her to a single genre irrelevant.
