Last week saw the release of
Abidanti's side project
Rory No-Mates' debut EP
Hard Liquor on
T.E.E.D. led label
Nice Age. A three track journey through lush leftfield house, it is equal parts exotic island and smooth spacewalk, all dreamscape. The title track takes little time to inject its intoxicating aura with a cool, off-kilter jazz core. Funky, freaked-out play between the chords and drum work make "
Hard Liquor" a potent production, and a great opener for the EP. A darker turn, "
Goldfish" wanders in waves of synths, growing ever more noxious as it progresses. No question a natural beauty, the EP really hits its stride with "
Land Of Broken Dreams," a brilliant blend of the two previous tracks. Lounge vibes abound as the cool keys cruise atop the crunchy percussion, subtle samples and gripping, groove growls. Lose yourself in the delightful debut EP
