Volt241 - James Swayzak
JAMES TAYLOR
(SWAYZAK)
'leave me alone' 'recto/verso'
10” vinyl only. VOLT241.
240 VOLTS
released via kompakt may 19th 2008
As the vampire rises in the evening dusk, this 2 sided 10” record is a form of rebirth, a second chance or ghost of another time.
Originally released on the long unavailable vinyl only LP of 'Carthage Milk' by Swayzak's James Taylor. These 2 overlooked swingers are presented in full glorious undedited form. Remastered at dubplates and mastering (berlin) they are polyrythmic and ultradetailed yet you can sing along! Warm and organic, they blurp and blart a path from the ear to the hips.
'leave me alone' starts in dub house land, quickly taking off with some ever shifting grooves and an oh so blue synth line. Like a hundred tubes of smarties at once shaking and melting in your hot little hands as everything reduces to a super sweet over saturated solution of sound.
'recto / verso' is the upstart little brother both annoying and endearing. Its crooning cut up voices lead us to a superdiltued acid line that comes down via some nasal vowel sounds. A tribute to the lost art of the photocopier.
thanks to alexxx of logistic for letting us bring these back to life, thanks also to RRR, Dj Purple and Roger23. and thank you dear listener.
