Review: Hot Chip founder and one-half of The 2 Bears Goddard teams up with London-based producer Alex Warren on a four-track EP that demonstrates the pair's shared love of vintage Chicago house and Detroit techno sounds. Goddard's 'Jack Come Back' centres around a 303 bassline, 909 drum hits and a spoken/chanted vocal intoning the title, while the Detroit-y 'Moebius Trip' is pacier BPM-wise, yet somehow still more reflective in feel. As for Warren's contributions, 'LakE' tops a dark, 303-tinged backdrop with stuttering cut-up vox that sound almost tribal, while 'KatE', the most contemporary-sounding cut here, is all insistent, live-sounding bass, synth swirls and disembodied vocal fragments.
