Comment:
A Sol Mechanic is a producer from Los Angeles, California, USA who issued
his 5-track issue on New York-based imprint Stereocure. Actually it is highly
symbolic to build bridge between the two biggest cities in the USA because the
artist`s album is thoroughly urban, modern and related to urbanity. More
concretely, the album is a representative of the so-called modern rhythm and
blues and soul music. It does mean it runs on a shitloads of samples and the
knacks represented on it are the workout of intense production. The mood touch
is truly relaxing due to low-slung paces, wonky LFO filtered piano taps, cinematic
vibes and slightly drunk-pitched vocal deliveries. At times those soothing yet
hazy bass lines remind of more subdued moments from Air`s classical album Moon Safari (particularly in the
beginning at Feels Like Us). However,
this release`s essentiality couldn`t be brought forth without the influence of
Flying Lotus´ importance on the aforementioned genres (you can distinctly hear
sampledelic and chunky lo-fi approach in creating the sequence of rhythms). As
the artist sings /just take your time,
just take your time for me/crosslife for me/. Just pick it up!
