EVERYTHING IS RECORDED – producer Richard Russell’s ever-evolving artist project – release the Cut Off Your Nose EP via XL Recordings on 14 August. Spotlighting fresh new voices while recruiting celebrated past collaborators, the EP sees Russell joined by Jah Wobble, Roses Gabor, Samantha Morton, Rian Brazil, IDK and Peter Gabriel across four tracks that map the full breadth of his restless creative vision.
At the EP’s centre is new single Cut Off Your Nose featuring legendary musician Jah Wobble, who contributed to two tracks on the Everything Is Recorded 2025 album Temporary. An equally prolific presence in his own right, Wobble has lent his one-of-a-kind bass playing to the likes of Public Image Ltd, Bill Laswell and Primal Scream’s Screamadelica, alongside more recent outings with Ken Boothe, Jon Klein and Tian Qiyi. On Cut Off Your Nose, Russell places him front and centre as lead vocalist and bassist on a track that distils elements of grime and breaks into a prowling, gut-punch collision of genres. It’s accompanied by a striking Ed Morris-directed video.
“Jah Wobble’s bass has been a foundation of so much music I love. He’s an incredible collaborator, a musical hero who’s a joy to work with – so much knowledge and humour. For Cut Off Your Nose we talked about him being the vocalist as well as the bassist, and he didn’t hesitate. Same conviction, same weight.” Richard Russell
“Working with Richard has been like a breath of fresh air for me. His sessions are always fun, Imaginative and idiosyncratic. He’s a smart cookie, never on autopilot. The way he works is reminiscent of the great Holger Czukay. He understands the importance of ‘the moment’. That’s a pretty rare quality in itself.” Jah Wobble
