In a short space of time prodigious Dutch producer Pascal Benjamin has built up a catalogue of ear-snagging minimal house confections for labels like Welt, Norse Projekt, Algorhythmic and Botanic Minds. Now hes hitting the big time with this 12inch on the mighty SlapFunk, and hes packing just the kind of chunky, swinging but ultimately lean jams they love. Out Of Line keeps things focused on the drums, with just some sub bass and microscopic threads of sonic matter in between. To GoodTo Be Who? is equally stripped down, but decidedly more wriggly in its make up, and then Finest Hour kicks off the B-side with some fatter beats and a more prominent bass line. Lagrange Point finishes the EP off with some subliminal bleeps and tones pinging in between the wafer thin percussive pulses.
