limited one sided edition !! far out is just that: a track that goes the distance, but without pretension or unnecessary fanfare. more understated than your typical anthem, it cruises in stealth mode, winding a refined, percussive groove ever tighter, threaded onto a pattern of needle-nosed toms that glides almost unnoticed under your skin. unnoticed, that is, until the tracks main riff comes crashing down like an awning full of icicles, sharp and cold and heavy. but sebo ks sense of restraint is such that he never beats us over the head with it, so to speak. instead he lets the groove spiral on, tightening it as he goes and whipping up chilly little sinewave twisters along the way. you can leave your mittens at home, though, because theres enough heat in the rolling bass line to keep you warm all winter long

archipel brings in two of its friends from uk, newcomer sozadams and moes ferry superstar croatian luka & lazo, for its fifth vinyl outing >tahiti excursion vol. 2< on which soz takes the a side and luka & lazo take the b side both bringing the dirty warehouse funk. soz starts things off with >broken thought< which is a thumping, sweaty late night floor mover which is sure to bend limbs in ways never witnessed before. >liars chair< is a slightly slower pusher which twists and melts along through corroded vocal snippets and dark polyrhythmic moments. luka & lazo take the same attitude of dark funk from sozs a side journey and shred it into a million pieces. >the safe< is a warmer tinged funk but still keeps things moving and grooving while >mood mode< jacks along and rips up a world of digital fabric. archipel keeps up the quality with ease and this is yet another piece of aural evidence to prove it
