Omar S
O MAARR
About this item
The pinball wizard's back at it again, depositing three more tracks from the FXHE studio. "O MAARR" kicks off to be frank, possesses a bump and shuffle that's unique to the Motor City - harnessed by Alex Smith this is one of the hottest vocal joints on FXHE for some time. A real basement buggin, e-soul heater that's gonna find tons of favour over here in the Rainy City.
Couple more experimental jams to round off the EP. "Glass" utilizes those fractured drum machines bit crushed hand claps, complete with a rattling dub-wise synth section. Sounding like a mine cart derailing as brake neck speeds!
"Bug Off" is a sultry, technoid number which again, could only have come out of the mind of Omar S. Wild synth resonances, rib punching kicks and moody, red-lit keys... backroom tackle that'll have everyone getting loose...Recommended!
STAFF COMMENTS
Matt says: Both "Can't Get" from a few weeks back, and this one find Omar S in as strong a form as ever. I don't think he's compromised his personality once, and FXHE is one of the most consistent and solid labels of Detroit's third wave.
