Review: Athlete Whippet is not one of Peckham's better-known artists, though the fast-rising duo's hazy, dusty and quietly summery take on deep house certainly sounds like comes from the South London borough. Check "Hands Only", the title track from the duo's latest EP. While a little chunkier and bolder than, say, many Rhythm Section International releases, it would sit neatly alongside them in DJ sets. In contrast, "Dreams" is an Italo-disco influenced roller whose inherent dreaminess becomes apparent as the track progresses. Max Graef heads up the accompanying remix package, brilliantly recasting "Hands Only" as a fizzing, Kaidi Tatham style broken jazz-funk gem, before Seb Wildblood serves up a wonderfully warm, loose and languid deep house take on "Other".
