Chug, dub, cosmic/new/neu disco, whatever you want to call it, tici taci has hit upon a formula which is ubiquitous, far reaching, uncomplicated and readily identifiable. By no means the first to rubber stamp such a sound, but definitely one of few to have assumed it so well. Both tracks here are slow burners full of familiar calling cards, but heavier on the dubbed out leanings than most. ‘Early Morning’ makes headway through a fug of chiasmic, frictional fog amongst which what sounds like an Ian McCullough vocal sample repeats longingly. ‘Vermillion Sands’ is a micron looser, but not much more. Both tracks lay with well established dub riddims and tropes and, even though you’ve heard them before, bring something inexplicably new to the table.
