Behind the House : Release Notes
‘jaaaa soul boy steez from MJB on his first drop of ’23, teasing an hour of frayed late night vibes on the line between Gescom edits and subaquatic Actress funk… After flashing unreleased tackle in Manchester and Glasgow in recent times, Michael J. Blood leads on from his acclaimed debut album ‘As Is’, and a clutch of Rat Heart & Sockethead jams, with another off-the-cuff salvo cut from his bag of studio tapes. It’s less frazzled than his ‘Blood FM’ tapes, and follows a smokier line of nocturnal thought along the keys and thru the SP-404 with the groggiest late night logic. Trust, as always, that it’s a ride, servicing afterparty soirees and wake ‘n bakes with the special stuff. His A-side opens with stuttering smoke-belch dubbing that congeals into something like Post’s MASK400 edit of Grace Jones, fraying into Seekersinternational-style sampledelia, bubbling up with early SND chords and rimshot tickles, then slipping under the groove with Claude Young like filtering, and spitting out fish-scaled electrofunk at the other end of the wormhole. For the B-side he eases on a leaner Drexciyan electrodub flex glazed with hydroplaning chords and into hair-kissing jazz-chops and the sort of broken beats circa classique Plastic People. Mickey J. Blood rules…’ – Boomkat
