after rising very quickly to the top of the pile with his own brand of no nonsense beats and bass party rockers, pimpsoul delivers a full original artist ep on the home of all things dancefloor, bombstrikes! and we think it s a scorcher.

assoziierte man die tracks auf >ambivalence avenue< noch mit sonnendurchfluteten landschaften, so ist >mind bokeh< der nächtlich-urbane gegenpart in neonfarben. lebendig, bunt, angenehme erinnerungen weckend! hier vereinen sich warme, seligmachende klänge mit pop-sensibilitäten & peter-frampton-vocodern, entstehen hybride aus thin lizzys pop-aggressionen & dem blue-eyed-soul des 1990er french house, fusionieren afrobeat mit starsky & hutch soundtracks. >mind bokeh< ist qualitativ hochwertig & abwechslungsreich, oder wie bibio gerne seine warp-kollegen boards of canada zitiert: >nehme immer an, dass der hörer die intelligenteste person ist, die man sich vorstellen kann. wenn du immer daran denkst, wirst du ihn nie beleidigen können!< du hast dir >mind bokeh< verdient!
