The long awaited first EP on Decoy Records from Rebekah has landed. Beginnings is inspired by Birmingham and those formative years of her love affair with the city and the special sound that comes from there. Central Hall is a quirky techno banger, cutting through with saw toothed military precision and heavy beats, capturing Rebekah’s well-known energy. The remix for this is supplied by Ansome (Mord, Perc Trax), who drops the tempo slightly and pays more attention to the groove with his stripped back interpretation. Stetchford Rising see’s Rebekah working with a sequenced analogue top line which pulsates, filters, rises and drops throughout the piece. Closing the EP, Rebekah throws in a curve ball to remove the clichés of her harder sounds with Last Time I Died, a break beat work out, huge synth melody and melancholic pads, laying to rest somewhere in the ether.
