Photonz - The Sun And The Moon (One Eyed Jacks)

 


Title: The Sun & The Moon 

Artist: Photonz

Label: One Eyed Jacks

Cat Number: OEJll002

Genre: House


1: The Sun & The Moon

2: White Pelican

3: The Sun & The Moon (Cigarra Remix)

4: The Sun & The Moon (Kaumel Remix)


With an emphasis on minimal funk and detail, Photonz latest ‘The Sun & The Moon’ is a finely tuned release which relies on the dancer’s discretion further to its mission. I say this because the two original compositions aren’t that danceable. There is enough to work with though, particularly the title track. It’s a dubby tune with recognisably rousing piano samples all heard through a barbiturate haze. ‘White Pelican’ is a looped descent into the underworld and is anything but concrete. The two remixes take ‘The Sun & The Moon’ in different directions. Cigarra’s remix is footwork – inspired, while that of Kaumel unleashes the acid and is the most floor friendly track of the four.
