SX2

Ireland’s Clive and Scott Sullivan return to Disco Halal with another genre and preconception busting hit! Described by label head, Moscoman as ‘Nirvana playing with grime’, lead track “Steady Up” features another Irishman, Pat Lagoon and is an outrageous slice of alternative dance music that should appeal to fans of Real Lies, The Chemical Brothers and sounds a little like Erol Alkin’s remix of Fontanes DC!

“Dreamer” takes things in more expansive and hypnotic directions, long synth sweeps and stuttered ethereal vox conjuring up images of vast vistas and scorching sunsets. “We Gotta Tell The World” has a nocturnal energy and urgency, more gated vox and searing guitar lines its trademark. Finally “Fear Forever” leaves an indelible mark on our sense with its anthemic chords and end-of-night sensuality. A seriously strong four track EP from these rising stars of the Irish dance scene. Most recommended! 


STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: It's a bit marmite but that "Steady Up" track's a winner for me! The Irish accent lending itself wonderfully to a witty rap from Pat Lagoon, while a filthy yet stadium friendly indie-disco-techno aesthetic encompasses the instrumental tracks. Interesting stuff that's defo worth checking.

Isaac Hayes

Shaft - Vinyl Reissue

    Even from the very first 'wikka', anyone on the planet can spot the classic theme from Shaft. Creative juices in full flow, the mighty Isaac Hayes penned a Blaxploitation theme so funky, fresh and orchestrally superior that it seized control of the collective pop consciousness with a vice-like grip. But if you look and listen beyond the ubiquitous title, Hayes delivers four sides of melodic and conscious mood music, only rivaled by Curtis Mayfield's "Superfly" for the genre's top spot. The contemplative groove of "Bumpy's Lament" found favour with Mobb Deep and Dr Dre, "Ellie's Love Theme" did the trick for Biggie Smalls while "Do Your Thing" prompted Big Daddy Kane to get super smooth. Each and every track is worth a mention, especially the breezy soul jazz sway of "Cafe Regio's", but rather than hear me wax lyrical, you should just cop a load of this wax - Black Moses in full effect!
