Socks and Sandals - Shatter EP (12")
label . Microcosm Music
Release date . January 23, 2006
Again Microcosm blesses us with an astonishingly charming and sensitive 12", that is not just captivating by its wonderfully subtle nature, but also feels incredibly catchy and danceable. Socks and Sandals are delighting us with an excellent mixture of filigree, yet driving grooves gliding through pulsating waves of instrumental parts and playful vocal constellations without loosing its dancefloor appeal.
The titletrack melts driving structures, gently rolling basslines and a lively microcosm of distorted vocal fragments and quirky sound effects, creating a seamless and dense mix of clicky restlessness and funked up breaks. While „Lucky The Liger“ seems to go in a more downtempo vein with lush sounds and occasional vocal bits, „Found In Space“ comes along with a clear infectious groove and gentle reverberated guitar parts, bringing back the warmth and striking beauty. The graceful deliberateness of „Peerless“ rounds up this excellent EP perfectly. A must-have!
