RELEASE
INFORMATION
Brooklyn NY's tiny
heavyweight, The
Savant Guard, follows their
highly praised release of Pink Skull's Drugs
Will Keep Us Together EP
with a superb debut recording from multi-talented South Carolina indie
poponaut, Toro y Moi.
Left
Alone At Night
is a pop chestnut of sliced up beats, live instrumentation and vocals,
looped and layered into a swerving, heady dance gem that showcases Toro
y Moi's dreamy sound and melodic ingenuity.
Backing
up the original are club shattering remixes from Trouble and Bass
Crew's Drop The Lime,
Philadelphia remix royalty, Pink
Skull, and Kinjo's Dave
Allison.
XLR8R Artist of The Year, Drop The Lime, offers an urgent and
stammering take with a bassline more wobbly than a supermarket shopping
cart, while Pink Skull lays it on the line with a futuristic drug-disco
mix of genre hopping house craziness. Montreal's Dave Allison strips
down to the tech basics and provides an absolutely beautiful house
rerub. Bonus tracks on the digital release are from Leeds UK's Afro
Digi Scratch with some big-room electro action and London's Tom Lown
with a funky and upbeat mix. Pink Skull slows it down with an eight
minute dark extended dub, rounding out an impressive and musically
diverse seven track digital and four track 12" EP.
