Is there anything Felipe Gordon can't do? On his second Clone Royal Oak outing, Gordon eschews the acid flex of his previous EP for the Rotterdam imprint in favour of nods towards New Jersey garage and turn-of-the-90s NYC deep house. The headline attraction is 'For Martha', a bumpin' excursion rich in squelchy synth-bass, synthesiser horn sounds and deliciously dreamy chords. Kai Alce delivers two revisions: an even more old school-sounding revision blessed with his usual jazz-flecked instrumentation (the 'Remix') and an arguably even stronger 'ClubJazz' mix that could have come straight from Jovonn's archive of unreleased early '90s productions. Elsewhere, 'Waves' is a spacey, off-kilter, percussion-rich workout of the sort we'd usually associate with Ron Trent, and the hazy, all-action early morning delight that is 'The Beginning Of That Lonesome Road'.
