Planet Mu welcomes back Meemo Comma for her third album 'Loverboy'. 'Loverboy' is a shift in gear from Meemo Comma's previous works, speeding up the tempos and rhythms, it's set in the nineties with trance, breakbeat hardcore and jungle as some of the influences.

After playing a club gig in Spain as lockdown rules were loosening, Rix-Martin was reminded of the power music and people coming together creates. 'Loverboy' is peppered with influences from friends past and new as well as artists that have transformed the sound of Meemo Comma over the years, including Autechre, Guy Called Gerald, Orbital and Shitmat as well as others.

On this journey we follow 'Loverboy' through the club as the night builds and different characters are met, from dropping the first pill to a euphoric 'Cloudscape' whilst waiting in the queue, to meeting some shady sorts in 'Loneheath'. The album changes pace throughout with different rooms of the club being explored which add to the brevity of Rix-Martin's production style on tracks such as 'Kyle' and 'AK47'. 

What started as a personal joke about Rix-Martin's background formed a narrative for some darker, cheeky breaks that echo back on title track 'Loverboy', a track that Rix-Martin describes as "working class gender euphoria".

Maybe the mask has come off, and the shackles of pseudo-intellectualism have been put to rest for an honest, fun and 'propa cheeky' rave album instead.
