This EP brings together tracks that bookend Lee Norris prolific career: two from 1998s sought-after Tidal Frequencies EP and two CD-only tracks from 2015s * Soul Of The Machine* compilation. For fans, this is a welcome reminder of the sometimes visceral (‘Instamatic’), sometimes weightless (‘Fragile’) but always deeply-felt sensation that Noriss’ music continues to impress even on the most seasoned devotee. For new listeners, this is a comprehensive introduction to the career of a man whose sound has remained diverse yet cohesive over more than 15 LPs and twice as many 12”s. ‘Slowform’ and ‘Ride’, both new cuts from last year’s retrospective, show a dance floor progression that bodes well for his newest album, out in 2016.
