Richard Swift Presents  MALO MONO

Jos et sä soita

An erotic hymn full of angelic angst and longing.

Hold Me Like A Prayer

Drift is the sophomore full-length album of Persona La Ave X Baraka, a Knoxville producer-player duo churning out melodic funk music.

Having originally established himself at the intersection of vaporwave and synth funk as an early pioneer of what the Internet labeled ‘future funk,’ Persona La Ave (Dylan Dawkins) has spent years transitioning into a way of songwriting that sidesteps his earlier obsession with sampling the musical past, opening instead to the jazz instrumentalism of Baraka (Geoffrey Dean) in order to venerate the roots of ‘80s synth funk, jazz fusion, and house music by multitrack recording an album part by part, one slow syrupy sax solo at a time.

Drift is full of washing, mesmeric DX-7 bell melodies whose long tails form an icy ambience. The album also draws on all the sonic signifiers of an ‘80s pool party, searing memories of a neon futurism with sweltering synth bass stabs and incessant gridded 16th note 909 drum patterns. Temperatures range, but the consistent burn of Drift comes from the friction of the meeting of these two virtuosic musicians, both set on articulating their funk.

Still in my heart
When I’m broken
When I’m lost I know how - I know ways in
So wake me up tomorrow
With what I know now

Feeling it all
Yet I’m frozen 
When it calls, when it falls I know now, cause I
Went away, went away went away where I’d never been
Now - oh my god - I have love within

Now we’re alive when we’ve never been
In a way, in that way, I know how it all begins
We go on high in the wings and I
I look out all the way when we’ve never been so loud

N.B.S.L.
