Following his widely lauded 2011 Glass Swords LP, Rustie has been rather quiet on the production front. Then today, without any advance notice, the Scottish producer released a surprise double a-side single via Numbers, just before he embarks on a brief North American tour. The single contains the tracks “Slasherr” (which can be streamed below) and “Triadzz,” and will soon be followed by more solo material and whatever sounds he comes up with while contributing to the production of the upcoming Danny Brown record. Rustie will be hitting the road throughout the year, but his upcoming dates on North American soil run from March 7 to March 16. “Slasher” b/w “Triadzz” can be pre-ordered here alongside the digital version, and all of Rustie’s announced tour dates are listed below.
