Primitive World - Against The Clock

AS LIVE

Recorded Live at Outlier, London 12.3.16

AS LIVE @ Outlier 12.3.16 [1Hr EDIT]

We're all very aware of Dan Shake's uncanny ability to hypnotise hips at his own beck and call. Our boogie get down from a couple months ago is ample evidence for any naysayers. And here he is, back at it again and twisting the knobs on an exciting new project. 

XOA's MO is to match-make the golden era of 70s Afrobeat and contemporary electronica together. It's all very tropical, and perfect background music for the cocktail-wielders among you. Whiffs of Floating Points and Bonobo exist, mainly because XOA is equally comfortable backed by a full live band as behind the decks.

Shake003 is titled "AIYE LE" and features afrobeat royalty in Dele Sosimi — yours for the taking in May. Meanwhile, Mr. Shake provides the rejig, implanting a smidgen of Detroit shuffle into an already groovy original.

Though it would be presumptuous to predict a *Track of Summer 2016* in the modest month of April – sod that, we're going to do it anyway. After a short while finely tuning the sample-based house and disco ReGraded sub-label, Midland reopens the doors to his original Graded imprint with a release that's well worth shouting about. Catalogue number #003 comes in the form of three-track Blush EP, with an opening title track that highlighted Midland's own BR set at Dekmantel last summer. A token example of Midland's ability to create authentic, instantly catchy dance music – with a hook that's guaranteed to woo hearts across many dancefloors worldwide.
