Review: Having come to bear arms through labels like Meakusma, Palto Falts and Emotion Response, Georgia have transpired to be a Chinatown dwelling duo outta New York. Their music represents an arty, synthy, DIY and experimental take on tropical rhythms, subtle industrial-tronics and percussion music with playful, abstract melodies. This record for the legendary Firecracker Recordings comes with an almighty stamp of approval from label boss and exotica auteur Lindsay Todd, lifting a premium of tracks from Georgia's archive to set apart a sound as heard on the two other LPs the duo released this year via Ekster and Berlin label M?tron. Choose your weapon.
Review: Electornic r&b sensation Louis Cole must be pretty chuffed with himself. The young producer has only really put out a string of self-released EPs, all of them excellent, but it must be a surprise and delight to be called up on Flying Lotus' Brainfeeder stable. It is clear that this relationship will be a winning one, however, as Time is a sensational album that encompasses all of what the enlarged 'bass' sound has to offer. There is a bit of everything in here, from the slow and melancholic vocal waves of "Everytime" to the much more pop-friendly, electro-filtered approach "Tunnels In The Air" - featuring the terrific Thundercat - and then onto plenty of house voyages and experiments, much like on the sublime "Freaky Times". A sure hit!
