NEW KANADA enters the winter season with a funked-out, peak-hour acid journey by Adam Marshall. Combining the bass groove of his "Vespers EP (NK17)" with the acid stylings of his recent Simple release ("Owl's Won't See Us"), Adam pulls up the reigns, cracks the whip and descends into the deep cut.
"Evil Jungle Prince", with it's incessant bassline and heavy groove, casts a long shadow filled with vocal stabs, snare dances and pulsing kicks. Clocking in at just under 12 minutes, it locks a serious mood from the outset and morphs it's way through an organic frenzy. Voices slip in and out, fuzz falls from the ceiling, but the pure acid reigns supreme. A piece of fluourescent glue for the most demanding DJ's, and some fancy hairgel for an advanced dancefloor. Soft, yet brutal.
"Ocho Echo" hits the arppegiator running, and the Latin samba band erupts into a fireball of analog power on this monster of a track. Dueling sequencers fuse deep techno with jacking house into a killer bassline, which weaves it's way though the next 8 minutes. Pure modular madness. "Plastic Dreams" meets Kerri Chandler with Manuel Göttsching sequencing a fucked-up ARP2600.
