“The Sprawl” was a new collaboration between artists Shapednoise, Mumdance and Logos. The commission, incorporated Shapednoise's focused noise and sound design into the UK dancefloor influences of Mumdance and Logos, producers who have been exploring the outer realms of grime, bleep, hardcore, and more.

The name "The Sprawl" is a reference to a trilogy of cyberpunk novels that William Gibson wrote, where the entire span of the east coast of the US has melded into a huge one single mass of urban sprawl, like a megacity. Said Logos: "We wanted it to be very industrial and intense but also have a UK angle to it, just so it represents all of our tastes" (interview with FACT magazine).

Premiered at the CTM 2015 Tune Out Closing concert, "The Sprawl" has since traveled to many festivals & events including Sonic Arts Festival in Amsterdam and ICA London. The trio released The Sprawl EP via The Death of Rave in late 2015.
