Description
2019, 12″, Running Back.
London duo Dusky are up next on Running Back, with what appears to be the first volume in their new Life Signs series. Best described by Gerd Janson and Co. as British bass science applied on classic house tropes, where breakbeats underpin transcendent melodies and IDM meets UKG. The lads behind the much lauded 17 Steps label are in fine form here: from the electrifying Italo disco influenced number ‘Boris Borrison’s Trip To Morrisons’ on the A side being unlike anything we’ve heard from the pair before. On the flip, it’s a throwback to the illegal dance parties of the early ’90s on the pitched-down hardcore breaks of ‘Lea Valley’ and harking back to a similar era is the euphoric ‘Static.’ – Juno
