James Ruskin & Mark Broom are back as The Fear Ratio with their third album They Cant Be Saved.

The duo, who are long-term collaborators have created their own signature style with abstract synths, heavy basslines and experimental soundscapes that fit somewhere in between IDM, electronica and ambient.

Their acclaimed debut album Lightbox was initially released in 2011 on Ruskins Blueprint Records, featuring remixes from Warp aficionados Plaid and Deadhand. Soon after they formed a long-lasting relationship with cult Manchester based label Skam, with the follow-up album in 2015 Refuge of a Twisted Soul. 2018 saw a four track Live EP release made up of exclusive versions of their Autechre supporting slot at the Great Northern Warehouse in Manchester,

Several years and various solo productions later, The Fear Ratio return with an album that solidifies their reputation as experimental producers. From the ethereal opening bars of Sender slowly twisting into a brooding dub breakbeat, to the staccato, bugged out atmospherics of Grey Code, ghostly electronics of Small World, tripped out, schizophrenic hip hop haunting bass of Game Plan and sun-dappled keys of The Final Vision Broom & Ruskin flex their techno muscles ever further beyond the floor.
