Fort Romeau & Ali Tillet’s Cin Cin imprint return with another impeccable release that showcases fresh and forward thinking leftfield house for discerning heads and feet. XOA, the London based multi-instrumentalist also known as Nick Tyson, collaborates with the electronic duo Wayward for two tracks. ‘Koto’ and ‘Wayo Wayo’ both fuse smooth percussive afro-house elements with tougher synth lines, each track encompassing energetic rhythms and absorbing melodies and lead lines.
On the flip, DrumTalk follow up recent releases on Huntleys & Palmers and Permanent Vacation with a pair of machine driven, techno infused cuts par excellence. ‘Ariel’ mixes disco bleeps, loose drums and waves of vocal pads and arpeggiated leads that ecstatically rise and fall, and on ‘Red Haze’ we are treated to modulated drums and an infectious bassline that welcome in a myriad of sounds without ever losing the deadly driving groove that is the track’s backbone.
