Warp will release the Scottish artist's first album in October.
Rustie will release his first album, Glass Swords, this October on Warp Records.
Real name Russell Whyte, Rustie is a Glasgow-based artist with a highly individual production style. Much like fellow Glaswegian Hudson Mohawke, Whyte's records fall under the umbrella of bass music, though they're often a delirious blend of different genres, weaving in everything from dubstep to hip-hop to prog rock (in the music as well as the sleeve designs). The album follows in the wake of last year's well-receivedSunburst EP, and features all previously unreleased tracks. It will be available digitally as well as on vinyl and CD. To get an idea of what the album holds in store, have a look at the teaser clip below, which features part of the opening (and title) track.
