Opal Sunn - The Problem With George/The Mystery Of Mr Lee (ESP Institute)

 


Title: The Problem With George/The Mystery Of Mr Lee 

Artist: Opal Sunn

Label: ESP Institute

Cat Number: ESP - CX11

Genre: Deep Feelings


A: The Problem With George

B: The Mystery Of Mr Lee


Opal Sunn (Alex Kassian and Hiroaki OBA) really come correct on their first release for Lovefingers’ ESP Institute. ‘ The Problem With George’ is an expanding universe of a track. Percussion builds and erupts in intermittent crescendoes along its linear span, a low end growl appears to emphasise an unspoken solemnity while peripheral elements spin off into the great beyond. ‘The Mystery Of Mr Lee’ is equally atmospheric, but more subdued, giving off updated film noir vibes in subtropical vegetation. Both tracks are incredibly inventive and feel like they have infinite possibilities; and it goes without saying that taking class A drugs will only enhance the listening experience. Absolutely amazing and highly recommended, like pair of synaptic lullabies.
