Description
2020, 12″ EP, Magic Wand.
The latest featured editor to contribute to Magic Wand’s Special Editions series is former Public Possession regular – and recent Internasjonal signing – Anton Klint. As you’d perhaps expect, the tracks he’s chosen to rework tend towards the eccentric and more crate-digging end of the Balearic spectrum. For proof, check the slip-sliding fretless bass, bubbly drum machine rhythms and AOR-goes-synth-pop vibes of opener ‘Rain’, the sax-laden, mid-80s AM radio goodness of ‘Special O’, and the lolloping, late night soft rock-meets-reggae pop brilliance of ‘Marie’. Best of all though is ‘Full Dose of Love’, an extra-percussive, delay-laden chunk of undulating dub that’s just crying out to be played loud at sunset. – Juno
