patten’s rather great (if confusingly titled) debut album GLAQJO XAACSSO was released recently, to widespread praise. In our review, we described it as "prone to mood swings, cuddling up to you with some Boards of Canada-style loveliness one second then frothing at the mouth with overprogrammed intensity the next, with sinister voices low in the mix, replicating the fried gobbledygook that runs through your head after too many excesses."
He’s now put out a video for album track ‘Plurals’, which does a good job of capturing his album’s hallucinatory intensity.

He’s also announced a London headline show, which will take place at Camp Basement on 19th January.
