Theo Parrish: Smile

Theo Parrish Smile Sound Signature Theo Parrish has built a timeless sound within techno – his version of soulful, relaxed, broken-beat boogie and moody house is a blueprint now, or perhaps Footprint is the better term. And so I wonder sometimes about his modern music – whether it was made way back…

Theo Parrish: Wuddaji

Theo Parrish Wuddaji Sound Signature I’m a big fan of Theo Parrish. I don’t keep up with anything in dance music at all. Not anymore. And yet I hear Parrish and recognise his, er, footprints instantly. He is techno on the jazz tip – or at least there’s a jazziness about what he’s doing. His […]

Myele Manzanza: A Love Requited – The Remixes EP

Myele Manzanza A Love Requited – The Remixes EP First World Records Maybe there’s something in the fact that Myele Manzanza is a drummer – I mean first and foremost (he’s a DJ, producer, beatmaker, bandleader…) – but there’s just something, outside of an accessibility, that lends his tunes to being remixed. So much so […]

Tenderlonious: Think Twice (ep)

Tenderlonious Think Twice (ep) 22a Music / 22a Ed “Tenderlonious” Cawthorne released a killer record last year called Hard Rain and he followed it up with this EP – another oblique  Bob Dylan reference… Flautist, saxophonist, bandleader turned label-owner, beatmaker and producer, Tenderlonious has parked his future-jazz 22archestra to the side and now seems more […]

Tenderlonious: Hard Rain

Tenderlonious  Hard Rain a22 Ed “Tenderlonious” Cawthorne clearly doesn’t want to be thought of as one thing only, so very soon after the wonderful Shakedown album with his 22archestra he is back with solo effort, Hard Rain.

Nicolas Jaar: Nymphs II (ep)

Nicolas Jaar Nymphs II Other People You couldn’t really call it an EP, it’s a single, a 12”, two sides, two seven-minute cuts, but in its weight, in what it offers, in how it feels – and in how it ends up sounding, I reckon it’s EP-worthy. A little slice of an album… Nymphs II […]

Theo Parrish: Footwork (ep)

Theo Parrish Footwork Sound Signature Ahead of the full-lengther here’s a new 2-track EP from Theo Parrish. Only two tracks – but 20 minutes of groove; that makes it worth mentioning – Parrish has roots in Chicago’s early house scene and Detroit’s classic techno feel and he combines those separate vestiges to make is own […]
