Nicholas Sauser + Ben Parris - Macrofun Vol. 5 (10")
label . Microcosm
Release date . August, 2006

New York's Microcosm Music returns with another deliciously diverse installment of their critically acclaimed Macrofun series that convinces one's again with midtempo loveliness and catchy sound arrangements. Volume 5 features two versatile and daring tracks by Nicholas Sauser (one half of the duo Socks and Sandals) and Ben Parris, known for his debut 12" on Philadelphia's Foundsound Records from 2005.

Sauser's „Slaughterhouse Joe“ pleases with a hypnotic journey through sluggish, almost delirious grooves weaving in a deep and quirky flux of sonic particles and reverberated vocal treatments. On the flip Ben Parris is utilizing scratchy percussions and chunky beats covered by a catchy synth-bass theme, creating a constant flow of dark sharpness and atmospheric deepness. The result is a marvelous split that leaves nothing behind but a gloomy, yet driving atmosphere.
