Kyle Hall, hailing from the Detroit electronic scene, has produced a great set of tracks with house and hip-hop vibes. The instrumental songs feature slow builds, sensual jams and jazzy interludes while keeping the groove going. The album was released as a set of 3 LPs. RIYL Cassius, Prefuse 73, many artists on Ninja Tune FCC clean Recommended tracks: 3, 5, 6, 7 1. (5:51) Damn! I’m Feeln Real Close - Uptempo drum machine with a jazzy piano in the background. 2. (5:43) Inverse Algebraic - Mid-tempo beat with heavy synth and a warbling, reverb-ing overtone. Could be video game puzzle-solving music. 3. (7:54) Dervenen - A crunchy drumbeat playing cat-and-mouse with piano riffs progressing into a synthy, swirly build. 4. (3:35) Able To - Like the intro music to a kitschy ‘80s cop show. Saucy synths with a stuttering beat. 5. (4:45) Wake Up and Dip - An upbeat, almost conga-like piano line with violin, cricket-chirping and a high hat. Ends with a synth solo. 6. (6:46) Strut Garden - Builds into a remarkably funky, mid-tempo jam. A head-bobber for sure. 7. (6:40) Mysterious Lake - High-pitched synth pleasantly twisting and twirling over a foot-tapping beat. 8. (5:36) Feel Us More - Clappy drums and a Casio keyboard freestyle. | ||
