"The most exciting new artist of the year" - The Fader The tail end of 2011 saw the emergence of material from a producer known only as Evian Christ with oblique Youtube videos accompanying music which seemed to occupy its own particular twilit corner of the musical landscape - poised somewhere at the crossroads between freaked, haunted ambience and sparse, twisted R&B.

Signing shortly after to Tri Angle, Evian Christ (aka 22 year old Merseyside resident Joshua Leary) released a free mixtape, "Kings and Them", collating his 8 tracks to date, and heralding the arrival of a truly exciting new talent in the process.

This limited edition 12" collects together four tracks from "Kings and Them" in new and remastered form, and sees the first proper physical release from Evian Christ.

Over the space of these 4 tracks, the breadth of his unique vision is just beginning to be explored.

Amidst all the hype, Evian has recently been wowing audiences with his live show which was debuted whilst supporting Purity Ring, and he's set to unveil a new live show with visuals designed by the same creative force behind Jay-Z and Kanye West's recent shows.
