Plant43 is on quite a roll at the moment and seems to be able to churn out alien soundscapes with a flick of the wrist. So much so that I’m sure there will be his own licensed synth preset switches designed to do exactly that sooner rather than later. This latest offering continues the high standard set not only by his last few releases, which have been on his own eponymous imprint, but by his back catalogue generally. Emile Facey’s releases stand out from the crowd due to their depth, warmth, otherworldliness and funk, and the first three tracks on this release have these qualities in abundance. What’s more, it doesn’t seem to matter how often it’s done, in Mr Facey’s hands this sound continues to come up fresh time after time. The two tracks on the B side, however, go off this well worn path. B1 is a delicate excursion into the cosmic side of drum and bass, while B2 is a beatless composition which asserts its power on the back of some fiendishly scatty synth work.
