About this item

Following on from DJ Seinfeld, the lo-fi house superstars of yesterday return with a brand new sound! With Seinfeld's self-confessed ode to Burial on "Mirrors", Ross From Friends levels up with "Tread", coyly released on Brainfeeder Records as to hint at the change (read: update) in musical direction.

Melodic, touching, nostalgic but brilliantly modern and original, "Tread" runs the full gamut from melancholy to euphoria. It’s also sleeker and arguably more dancefloor-focused than his acclaimed debut album, "Family Portrait", but his signature personality - wavy, drunkard pads, sloppy coke can drums, angelic vocal hooks and smudged bass - is ever present.

A brilliantly realized long player that fans of Bicep, DJ Koze, Floating Points & Hidden Spheres are gonna really enjoy. 

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Really enjoying the return of DJ Seinfeld and Ross From Friends. It's nice to see them moving onto new pastures after riding the lo-fi template to the event horizon. Delicate, intimate and rich with natsukashii it's also undeniably forward glancing and looking for new methods of expression within the dance music framework. Top marks.
