Is the world ready for a filter disco revival? Is this mid nineties Paris? Well, whether I know what I’m talking about or not, this release at least embodies the spirit of said approach; having refined and embossed it in the process. All tracks come with what feels like a sample heavy approach and dress it up with all manner of sonic embellishments. ‘Beardvision’ sounds like something Ark would be proud of, with added sub bass. ‘Serena’ is probably the most obvious hommage to the sound of Roule et al and, as such, is pretty good because it never goes full throttle on the production. It has a healthy sense of reserve. ‘Luke’s Anger Remix’ of ‘Beardvasion’ puts the original on hydraulic stilts, substituting a sort of oompah band on crack for the bass. And ‘Earlyworm’ sounds like something Dan Bell and DJ Sneak might have come up with, had Relief ever commissioned anything from them. Not bad at all.
