Fcukers are back with a new banger single - ‘I Like It Like That’.

They built a record that moves with the energy of the dancefloor & also carries detail & emotion for home listening. Every track shows their love of experimenting with sound & underground music. It’s a record that marked the start of them carving out their own space and birthing iconic track ‘Glue’.

Skalpel are a duo from Wroclaw, Poland. They were Ninja Tune’s first Polish signing.

Their debut album on Ninja Tune ‘Skalpel’ was released in 2004. The closing track ‘Sculpture’ was accompanied by this black and white moody music video. A perfect match for the smoky and atmospheric music.
