Choppin It Up

One part of the recently released series of 12"s from the DFA sister label (?) Death From Abroad features two tracks from Mock & Toof. The a side is a stomping acid workout that takes off after a slick extended steel bell intro. But really this is all about the thicker than nyquil synths that turn the track into a dreamy trance out.

I first heard Losoul on Optimo's BBC essential mix. Responsible for the outstanding edit of UnKnownMix's The Siren I recently tracked down some original vinyl he put out in 2006. Back Wash Riders is heavy minimal funk at its finest. Chopped up stabs scatter and scoot over a straight house beat until the wobbling bass picks up and starts sliding in between. After the two minute mark the track pulls you down into a deep, hollow ravine and doesn't let up until it has thoroughly rinsed you in the oily waters of its funky river.
