The other side of ‘Dem Young Sconies’, so often overlooked; ‘Bosconi’ is every bit as sonically interesting as the A, probably because it really does sound that it came out of the same recording session. The two tracks are two sides of the same coin, with the more languid, horizontal sound of this track playing off against something more upfront and abrasive. Kenny Dixon Jnr very quickly established a sound which is simultaneously abstract and soulful, wrapped it in mystique and, in the process, became house music’s most enigmatic producer. It can often feel like he gets away with murder, but that’s all part of the appeal.
