Track of The Day: Amplified People - Canon Jack (Arpanet)


Plucked from the second release on Arpanet, a French label thast has nowt whatsoever to do with ‘Arpanet’. ‘Canon Jack’ has a ring to it, in that it immediately makes me recall Canon Higgins, the impossibly tall, thin, old and frail head of operations at my parish church when I was a nipper. Apart from this ephemera though, this is an atmospheric stomper with depth, the foundation of which reminds me a little of Daft Punk’s ‘Alive’. This is one of six tracks from the ‘Screen Memory EP’, apparently a relrelease of a shadowy French producer’s product, the original having come out on 2008 and with an extra ‘n’ in the title. ‘Canon’ definitely more evocative for me though.
