the central executives what can we say ? not much as it turns out - the generally very forthcoming golf channel crew are remaining tight-lipped about the architects of this, frankly mind-blowing debut long-player from this new nyc collective. a walk in the dark is exactly that, a situationist song-sheet & sonic chaperone to guide us through the back street escapism these troubled times demand. from gently over-driven punk funkin mascara stained hymns, to house that has been thoroughly smudged to the edges of its live music incorporating limits. sitting very comfortably, in a moment of stewed elevation alongside sound signature style machine jams, bare bones vocal led improvisations, discordant arthur russell moments & the distorted reflections of roots house that run to the very core of the big apple. a drop-jaw debut then, that wears its influences proudly, but takes them somewhere entirely new.

the central executives ist das house-projekt des britischen duos mind fair (aka dean meredith (chicken lips) und ben shenton). gemeinsam legen sie mit a walk in the dark ein ausgezeichnetes disco-album mit live-instrumentierung, irgendwo zwischen arthur russell, disco-punk a la dfa und act up protestaktion, vor.

a booming clavinet led banger from everyones favourite disco uncles, eric duncan and dean meredith. heavy on the lasers and scything hi hats with a bassline as deep as you would expect from these fellers. marcellus trademark sound is all over his remix - sultry rhodes and sweet, driving funk, and the central executives version strips it to the bone, revealing not a skeleton but a robot. a robot playing a fucking saxophone! rock on, dudes. golf channel every time!

location 141? location unknown? although one would hazard a guess at somewhere in the ether between chicago and detroit (that is, of course, if we didnt know any better). this mysterious créature de la nuit sits comfortably between the two places of influence and bends them into his own style to herald rogue cat sounds first emergence of 2014 and, in doing so, unfurls two killer, bumpin and weighty jams for the discernable discoid freaks in all of us.
