Review:
Lovebirds and Leif share the honours on this split release for the Liebe Detail imprint, with the former winning in the contest for most aptly titled track. It's pretty hard to refer to "The Beast" in anything other than monstrous terms with Lovebirds aka Seb Doring building an epic array of snaking modulated chords over gloriously loud drums. Coincidentally it also packs quite the Balearic punch at 33rpm as we mistakenly discovered upon first listen. Up next Leif serves up "Almost Invincible" which combines neat, dusty swinging 2 step rhythms with delightfully melodic keys and sweetly soulful vocal layers for a completely different but equally worthy production. And be sure to check the wonderfully raw live mix from Bulgarian don KiNK!
