High grade funk from the cosmos, channeled via Atlanta resident Distal.
Distal brings more of his trademark melting-pot aesthetic to his first full EP 12" for Fortified Audio. Squeezing the last 20 years of underground club music through his unique filter for "Android Tourism", fusing together the percussion of classic Carl Craig/ Derrick May, the dark bass and lush melodies of Blue Note era Metalheadz and the tight production of Artwork with the energy and freshness of new hybrid genres ala UK Funky and Footwork. Although Distal's productions are at their best when played through a serious soundsystem, little is lost in the transition to home speaker system or headphones, and the nature of Distal's music make it more than just fodder for the dancehall. Nonetheless, you'll sure-as-shit be hearing this behemoth EP at parties across the globe when it drops this spring. Indeed with a whole heap of 12"s set to drop this year, we are pretty confident Distal is going to be all up in everyones grill by 2012.
