Friendly Bacteria

Friendly Bacteria is the fifth studio album by the British musician and DJ Mr. Scruff. It was released on 19 May 2014 by the labels Ninja Tune/Ninja Tuna simultaneously.

Background
According to Mr. Scruff, the album would "display a stripped-back musicality, a depth that maybe hasn't been there before", and musically it would be "tougher, sparser, [with] less samples, more bass. More vocals and collaborations and shorter tunes".

On 28 February 2014, "Render Me", a song that would ultimately be featured in the album, was streamed on YouTube via Mr. Scruff's official channel.
