Thomas Leer was mainly active in the late 70s and early 80s, dropping two singles on Cherry Red that provided the source material for the two original tracks on this Emotional Rescue reissue 12-. Opener -Saving Grace- is a rich, bombastic blast of synthwave, all chugging arps and massive leads, while -Tight As A Drum- heads into more psychedelic territory, using strange gating techniques and deft FX to create a wondrous, shimmering bed for Leer s poetic chat over the top. Bringing an inventive angle to the release, the label signed Bullion up for two wonderfully warm, wobbly remixes. Honing in on the weirder qualities of Leer s work, these modern interpretations make a perfect bridge from the old to the new - highly recommended!
