It’s 12 years since Dresden-born, Leipzig-based Martin Enke first made waves under the Trickform alias, and four years since he launched the Lake People project. Given his production vintage, it’s surprising Purposefully Uncertain Field is his debut album. In turns uncomfortable, blissful, woozy and melancholic, it sees Enke confidently join the dots between shuffling Germanic deep house, early ’90s “intelligent techno” (see the brilliant “Cooping”), yearning tech-house, aqueous ambience (the swirling “Bora” and glacial “Distance”), clanking drum tracks (“Glease”) and loose-limbed IDM (“Drifting Red”). Throughout, there’s a curiously distant sense of atmosphere, with detached melodies and ghostly pads riding tight, bubbling rhythms.
