Action Sports - III (Self Release) - THE SLOW MUSIC MOVEMENT

The Slow Music Movement Blog

Mostly we put our daily recommendations here for the blog readers among you, although occasionally we go longform.
Reading about music is a bit like looking at pictures of food - not nearly half as much fun as getting involved, so we scribble a brief intro to hopefully whet your appetite but you're better off just hitting play. Not very "slow" I know but there's a lot of music to check these days & hopefully you'll find the recommendations a handy filter.
Trust your ears, not opinions.

Action Sports - III (Self RElease)

What Your Ears Say & The Cover Looks Like

What We Say

Imagining humanity's near future through an ambient post-dubstep lens, Action Sports (Matthew Peptone & Dylan Howe) foresee smart drug ridden inner cities, Fourth World utopian communes whose time has come, climate ravaged wildernesses & micro-climate situated smart-spa regeneration centres, as inequality is seemingly eternal.

What The Release Notes Say

"The number 3 has always held powerful symbolism. Think about good things coming in 3s, the birth-life-death cycle, the mind-body-soul connection, the 3 acts of a typical story." - Kerry Ward

PP015

"III" finds the duo behind Julius Theory and Portland Compressor revisiting their Action Sports moniker for the third and final time, completing a trilogy which began with "I" (released on Angoisse in 2017) and "II" (released on Gin&Platonic in 2020).

"III" continues a tripped-out tradition of genre-morphing surrealism, pushing experimentalism through all possible angles. From the deconstructed baroque dub of "Cubivored" to the rompler funk jam of "Smoker's Alcove," Action Sports' "III" is expansively zany and ultra moody in equal measure.

All music, mixing and mastering by Dylan Howe and Matthew Pepitone
