Arcadion - Ghost Feeder

TRACKLISTING: A) Ghost Feeder (5.17), B) Arc (5.23),

OVERVIEW: Arcadion is the new incarnation of Alan Dobson, also known as Hungryghost (with releases coming soon on Nightmares On Wax's 'Wax On' imprint) and as an erstwhile member of scratch DJ and production team Def Tex. A resident of Norfolk and more recently London, Dobson's musical journey has taken him from a childhood of dub, blue beat records and Norfolk ditch-jumping via an obsession with computer technology and sampling to arrive at the swaggering electro boogie that you find on this debut release for DC Recordings. The title track "Ghost Feeder" comes on like a modern take on the go-go music of Trouble Funk or Tilt, following the tradition of dance floor music fostered by Depth Charge in his formative years and therefore fitting neatly onto the DC roster. These are beats aimed squarely at your pelvis with an aim to make the party move, coming to you here in their most refined and pneumatic form! Second track "Arc" delivers more of the same quality but utilises the motifs of electro boogie - lilting electronic melodies riding a heavyweight percussive groove, augmented by the sound of vintage synths like the Octave Kitten and the Cheetah MS6 which bring a classic edge to this dance floor pulse, creating flavours reminiscent of Bambaataa and early New York electro at its most futuristic!
