Slime is the alias of 19 year old electronic producer and multi-instrumentalist Will Archer. Moving from his North East hometown to London in late 2009, Archer met a few kindred spirits (including Vondelpark) and quickly began focusing his eclectic taste to produce the distinctively pastoral electronic sounds of Slime.
Recorded at home and tweaked in the 4AD studio, the unabashedly emotional Increases is a sonorous and deeply textured record, and reveals a striking new talent.
Released Monday 27th June, the record will be limited to just 300 12″s. The artwork was designed by Will himself.

The world’s a child’s senesless act of violence inflicted on a neighbourhood cat.
The world’s a hideous road accident on a silent week day night, dead passengers, the driver unharmed.
The world is not a soft as lace. It is cold and dark and barbaric, where anger deserves to resound forever and likely will. A certainty to pin your hopes on.
