Artist: Ramadanman
Title: Mystic Voyage
Label: Hessle Audio
Format: 12″, Digital

Juno Records: http://www.juno.co.uk/products/I-Beg-You/387967-01/
Juno Download: http://www.junodownload.com/products/1550209-02.htm

The latest release from Hessle Audio comes in the form of a six-track, double vinyl pack from label co-founder, Ramadanman. Kicking off with ‘I Beg You’, with its ominous sounding groaning and sampled French vocals, which would not go amiss in a Pinter play, Ramadanman goes in deep, with trademark glockenspiel like percussion and grouchy b-line. Next is ‘No Swing’, with its gently taut, echoing soundscape and gloopy SFX adding deeper dimension to the slow burning piece. ‘Tumble’ showcases squeaky, grating synths which come in and out of focus until it falls into the most minimal of drops, heralded by live drum rolls, rather reminiscent of fellow Hessler, James Blake....

Same, pure brilliance! Has to be my favourite release this year along with Dissociate LP by Kontext.

A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be.
