The Tunnel/Lonely Pylon
A 2 track electronic single (5m 21s) — released September 19th 2025 on Delights 45
Group Modular breaks the 3-year silence and launches a new series of 7inch releases, powered by Confused Machines and Delights labels. The first 45 features two familiar tunes, previously available only on short-run (and immediately sold-out) lathe-cut releases.
"The Tunnel", taken from the 2021 Norman Records' 25th Anniversary split release by Polytechnic Youth, was the duo's first recording since finishing their sophomore album "Time Masters". With its repetitive patterns and slow hypnotic build-up, the track hints at the territory, further explored on Group Modular's Delights double-sider "Per Aspera Ad Astra" a year later.
"Lonely Pylon" was recorded exclusively for the third instalment in Russian Library's "L series" of split 7'' EP's, exploring themes of nature. It finds Mule Driver and Markey Funk departing from the familiar drum-centric sound towards atmospheric soundscapes and hypnagogic patterns. If 2022's "Per Aspera Ad Astra" wrapped a decade of space exploration, "Lonely Pylon" sees the duo finding the otherworldly in the day-to-day life back on Planet Earth.
