Through his wickedly experimental approach to electronic music, South London’s Dale Cornish has explored the outer-edges and inner-workings of dance tunes. Ever since he played a pioneering role in London’s electroclash movement at the beginning of the twenty-first century, Cornish has been gleefully deconstructing club and experimental music and reassembling it in his own fashion. From his treatment of the 909 clap on Clap (2016) to his pointillist explorations of rhythmic patterns on his releases for the sadly defunct label Entr'acte, Cornish’s eclectic results have varied in style and form, but always shared a highly inspired, poetic approach to electronic music production. 

The cumulative effect of Cornish’s versatile output has coalesced into his 12th album and latest opus Traditional Music of South London (2022), released on The Death Of Rave. In what feels like his most personal record to date, Traditional Music of South London serves as a “psychosexual-geography of London's lost gay club haunts,” offering Cornish’s reflections on the city, sounds, lifestyles, and cultures that formed him, personally and musically.
