Snaps (7” Mix)
3: Numerical
Discord Swap
4: Numerical
Discord Swap (7” Mix)
Both tracks here
shine a light onto what has become a very popular sub-genre. Popularized mainly
by Andrew Weatherall and ‘A Love From Outer Space’. this sound owes a debt in
equal parts to italo, acid and middle age. And that’s not meant as anything else
but the culmination of years of funk stroking, electronic, hedonistic knowledge
manifesting itself on the dance floor. The perfect vehicle then for the dapper
Justin Robertson, someone who, in spite of his immense contribution to British
house music has never, in my opinion anyway, quite garnered the praise he
deserves. Both tracks here, (we won’t bother with the 7” versions) are great
chuggers, especially ‘Numerical Discord Swap’ which is framed on two levels by
anamorphic keys from the fourth dimension.
