Cloud Boat At Juno Download

Review: Having previously impressed the likes of Gilles Peterson and James Blake with their unique live show, experimental duo Cloud Boat pop up on R&S with an impressive debut single. "Lions On The Beach" inhabits the same musical space as, say, Mount Kimbie or Sepalcure, fusing off-kilter dancefloor rhythms with intoxicating atmospherics and the sort of beautiful but unlikely noises (echo-laden slide guitar, distant vocal wails, subtle piano chords etc) that mark out the work of many bass music experimentalists. It's magnificent, but if anything B-Side "Bastion" - a beguiling downtempo concoction just dripping with raw emotion - is even better. As debuts go, this is pretty special.
