Review: Maya Bouldry-Morrison's first Octo Octa outing of 2021 is, as expected, rather good. Appearing on the T4T LUV NRG imprint she founded with life partner Eris Drew, the EP's three tracks wrap typically psychedelic and kaleidoscopic electronic sounds around tried-and-tested, club-ready grooves. While closing cut 'Spell For Nature' is a slow-build affair seemingly designed to begin sets - think long ambient intros, glassy-eyed distant piano sounds, whispered vocals and increasingly prominent beats - both 'Goddess Calling' and 'Find Your Way Home' are as tough as they are hallucinatory. Both see Bouldry-Morrison wrap drowsy pads and twisted electronic motifs around a mixture of crunchy house drums, sweaty breakbeats and - for a few heady moments - grooves seemingly inspired by early psy-trance.
