Freddy Fresh - Iman EP (EPMmusic)


 

Title: Iman EP

Artist: Freddy Fresh

Label: EPMmusic

Cat Number: EPM105

Genre: Electro/Beats


1: Iman

2: After Thought

3: EMF Theme

4: Tattered (Space Traxx)


Top modular geek Freddy Fresh comes correct here with a release of analogue electro goodies on an EP named after David Bowie’s wife. Perhaps the most intriguing track is ‘After Thought’ which skilfully blends electro and italo disco. It’s the melody over the top that is the most memorable feature, with the beats playing a secondary role. ‘EMF Theme’ is a delicate piece of playful breakbeat that feels like the sun shining through the window at 7am on a Sunday morning. ‘Iman’ is electro, complete with robot voices and a throbbing bass. It’s definitely on the breakdancing side of things, rather than the floaty and airy and reminds me a little of Dynamix ll. And the aptly named ‘Tattered (Space Traxx)’ is an interstellar symphony that drifts into the outer reaches powered by its own solar flatulence. Quiet a few bases are covered on this interesting and inventive release.
