Review:
On his previous solo excursions for Redux and Solardisco, Silver City and 2020 Soundsystem bass player Fernando variously fused punk-funk, dub disco and synth heavy nu-disco. Here, he's at it again, showcasing his credentials for the always-impressive Under The Shade. "The 87" is typical Fernando, with swishy electro-funk synths, high pitched vocal hooks and bubbling chords dancing around a typically rubbery bass guitar line. There's also a tasty DJ Kaos remix, which offers a kind of wall-of-sound production take on the surprisingly sparse original. On the (virtual) flip you'll find "Non Stop" (with accompanying Fabrizio Mammarella re-rub), a heavy and hooky electronic disco banger that almost outshines the A.
