Although Albertides is in the early stages of his career, early support has already come from heavy hitters like Martyn, Ryan Elliot and Luv Jam. The release opens with title track ‘Life & Bad Girls’, a dance-floor orientated house track employing hooky organ stabs, cosseting pads and call and response vocal snippets. Blured plays on subtle nuances to these fundamental elements throughout the tracks seven-minute duration to create an hypnotic, peak-time record. On the flip to close the single is, ‘It’s How The World Goes’, a beautifully contrasting track and stunning b-side material, blured opts for sensual Rhodes chords, punchy drums and earth-shattering subby tones as the driving force. Emotive, original vocals add a unique character to the track, while melodic progressions and additional percussion lines add a further intrigue to the composition. Teng offer up more intelligently crafted music again here, this is a striking indication of what to expect rom the Bluredism LP to follow.[info from wa]
