As Token gears up for its 126th release, the time has come to invite a label favorite - Inigo Kennedy. 

The Englishman responsible for Token 1 readies us for three tracks of pure grain and warbling melodies packaged as ‘ The Calling ’ - a hypnotic yet stomping club record that highlights his unique production style full of character. Taking up the entirety of the A side, ‘ Magnitude Seven ’ pulses itself through the first part of the ep. Melodic yet dissonant as many of Kennedy ’ s best records, the track calls o n a stripped down acid line to support a saturated groove and noisy synthwork. Epic in construction, ‘ Magnitude Seven ’ comes in waves of unsettling intensity emphasized by a powerful double kick sequence. The B1 takes it up a notch as the title track appro priately named ‘ The Calling ’. A frantic four to the floor rhythm pushes along sustained notes, settling in a certain pressure. Harmonic sections breathe more life in an otherwise nail biting record that defines the Token sound accurately and Kennedy uses t his arrangement to distance himself from the classic loop based template used by most producers in his field today, confirming the ongoing relevance of a longstanding career in club music. Ending with a bit of a twist for most, longtime fans will be unsurprised by the choice to wrap things up with ‘ Out of the Woods ’ - a fitting electronica closer that departs from ‘ The Calling ’ with a focus on introspection. Drifting notes and a shuffled percussion line are reminiscent of his UK roots and fit perfectly as a n epilogue to his previous techno tracks. Ethereal as ever, Inigo Kennedy offers us another masterclass in out of the box production techniques in soulful electronic music.
