Ibizan Street Dirt is a suspense-packed all-thrilled lameish pack of haptic funk – the media is the streets, so we find some dry, flirritating non-clash of reduced (neo-)detroitish to romantic styles, taking long transitions to then amount to a deep and dirty breakdown of unprecedented intensity.

Disjunctive ecclecticism, as found in Ibizan Street Dirt (GTSS001) and What Makes The Possible Real (GTSS002), rules this slow paced, round and sensitive mix consisting of elements from Space Disco, Material House, Reality Computing and Popular Music.

LISTEN HERE

1. Mono Puff – Pretty Fly
2. Talking Heads – Born Under Punches (The Heat Goes On)
3. Iz & Diz – Love Vibe (Pepe Bradock’s “Confiote De Bits” Remix)
4. Mono Puff – Pretty Fly
5. Quarks – Fallen
6. Hosomi – Kumorizoranohajimarutokoro
7. Björk – Jóga
8. Mice Parade – Double Dolphins On The Nickel
9. Asa-Chang – Kutsu #3
10. Morgan Packard – Airships Fill The Sky
11. Morgan Packard – Mink Hills
12. Yumi Kimura – Always With Me

The intense climax is reached in the second half, when layering Hosomi and Björk creates a surprising tension. The momentum, then, just carries on, as this beautiful Mice Parade song is even more intesified by Asa-Chang’s trumpet play, anti-climaxing into two accordions from two different tracks, together breathing along, making lots and lots of space for the Mink Hills, when it’s nearly time to say good-bye already …

So keep your eyes open, your ears, that is.
