I like this mans sound a lot and this here 12" is coming crispier than a pack of Frazzles with a big emphasis on the hi-hats. A slinky, sexy, soulful funky groover, a jazzy houser if you will. I like to imagine females with large posteriors on the dancefloor. Although having said that not as big as the booty on that Mount Kimbie sleeve... Foookinell... It might come in handy for resting ones pint on though. So yeah not sure about that tune to be honest, I do like some elements though. Much more up my street is 'Filthy Divinity' with ultra lush synth melody and hip-hop beats and samples from Mr Fingers' 'Can You Feel It'. Finally Odyssey goes for jazzy strings and some Moog action. Worth grabbing for 'Filthy Divinity' for sure.
* Following the "Phreqaflex" EP, where FaltyDL mined 2-Step Garage for inspiration, is this beautifully crafted and subtly put together slow motion house EP called "Endeavour".
* "Endeavour" itself kicks off the release with molasses thick chords, off-beat bleeps and drums which build up a lush atmosphere before breaking into subtle keyboard stabs.
* "Filthy Divinity" takes a more hip-hop orientated route with a plaintive lead synth melody playing out over dusty drum breaks and claps, building into a crescendo with lush sampled orchestra strings.
* "Odyssey" takes classic Detroit techno at a snails pace and adds jazzy strings and a moog melody borrowed from
classic fusion while building something that's simultaneously fresh and nostagic.
