201 Soundsystem - Broken Days EP (2013)



9.4

/Alternative, Trip-hop, Breaks, Urban music, Soul, Electronic pop, Downtempo/

Comment: this handful of pieces is a sublime blend of female vocal harmonies, and the wah wah effects and plucks of a soul guitar backed up by the smoky rhythms of trip-hop, and downtempo. Yet, there is up enough time to proceed the glimpses and whiffs of other elements and styles either. Every bit and slice seems to be poignantly accentuated on it reeking of dreams and longing. Highly subtle stuff which deserves to get more resonance for sure.
