Singles & EPs Update - 26th October, 2020

Taylore Deupree - Canoe (Longform Editions)

Vertical Divider

Longform Editions recently beamed out some new immersive listening experiences from their earthly Australian base, and unsurprisingly Taylor Deupree's was the pick of the bunch. Take a deep dive into this meticulous ambient lesson in sound craft.

Charles WEbster - The Spell (dimensions)

I'm not quite sure how the hell this remix happened but I'm glad it did! Charles Webster has been a deep house stalwart for ever & it's great to hear him team up with post dubstep poster boy Burial, who has added all the right twists, turns, perfectly judeged sprinkles and icing to an already decent original track.

Paul White - All Eyes Open Mixtape (Bandcamp)

Vertical Divider

I know it's not a single or EP, but I have a feeling there will be a few oddities ending up in this intermittent round up. I have a very soft spot for Paul White & there aren't many, if any, other producers who could put out such an accomplished, eclectic mixtape of their own material.

Christoffer Franzen - Ghost Of You (Deep Elm)

Nobody does melancholy quite like the climatically challenged northern regions, well apart from maybe the Portuguese, and this beautifully gloomy, cinematic neo-classical suite from Franzen, won't do anything to change my opinion. Those dark winter nights will just fly by listening to this.

't Geruis - Que tu es belle, au revioir.... (Lost Tribe)

Vertical Divider

An all too short EP and a last minute Bandcamp day drop from the ever intriguing Lost Tribe Sound label. A bit darker than my usual ambient listens, but the depth and originality dragged me in and wouldn't let go. Now if someone can just do some extended remixes I'd be most grateful.

SunPalace - Rude Movements Remixes (BBE)

I actually previewed this EP, which I never do normally  preferring to only publicise available music, but I was so excited by these reworks of this all time Loft and deep heads classic. Just hit play and hear Moodymann especially, not to mention Kenny Dope treat this tune with the reverence it deserves.

Obijuan x DylanTheInfamous - Odysseia (Bad Taste)

Vertical Divider

I don't recommend a lot of hip hop, but his late night smokers& thinkers EP is hitting all multiple spots. It reminds me a bit of RZA's Ghost Dog soundtrack in timbre, which is enough on its own to justify inclusion. One for the brainiacs rather than the bangers.

shida Shahabi - Lake On Fire (Fatcat Records)

We've been a fan of and supporting Shahabi over the last couple of years so it's intersting to hear her jump on the organ and enter more ambient, drone & cinematic territory with this new EP. Even better to hear she's not letting up on the quality control despite the new pastures.

Ão - BEST SERVED COLD (SAN-KOFA RHYTHM)

Vertical Divider

I honestly have no idea how I stumbled on this, but it's exactly the sort of genre bending oddity I can't resist, flamenco guitar leaning, Portuguese vocals, folk undertones, worldly wise & just the right dose of electronic mysticicsm. Bring on the LP.
