Heavy Rotation 2019

Midnight observatory, cold steel against my cheek
Your lens catches starlight I thought was mine to keep
Frequencies aligning in patterns no one planned
A signal breaking through the static of this land

When your telescope eyes meet my dreaming eyes!
We become the same pulsar in different skies!
No delay in light-years, just heartbeat synchrony
You found me in the static—now we pulse eternally.

Dials spinning faster than my thoughts can rearrange
Constellations shifting to match your strange exchange
Not searching anymore—we’ve locked our orbital phase
Your focus is as sharp as comets cutting through my haze

When your telescope eyes meet my dreaming eyes!
We become the same pulsar in different skies!
No delay in light-years, just heartbeat synchrony
You found me in the static—now we pulse eternally.

Coordinates confirmed…
Signal strength: overwhelming…
Repeat transmission: forever.

When your telescope eyes meet my dreaming eyes!
We become the same pulsar in different skies!
No delay in light-years, just heartbeat synchrony
You found me in the static—now we pulse eternally.

Pulse… pulse… pulse…

LAPS
Who Me? EP

http://smarturl.it/WhoMeLAPS

Glasgow duo Ladies As Pimps, a.k.a. LAPS, make their DFA debut with the Who Me? EP. After first meeting each other in an analogue production course run by Green Door Studio several years ago, Lady Two Collars (Golden Teacher) and Sue Zuki (Organs of Love) have now refined their sound and produced one of the most focused and vital club singles to emerge from the Glasgow underground, with their unique and thoroughly danceable fusion of dub, house, and trip-hop. 

“Who Me?” asks the question via a French-English narration, anchored by a hard-edged rhythm that assertively struts between percussive triplets and whizzing frequencies. “Ladybug” gets even more dubbed out, with arrangements that unfurl somewhere between Neneh Cherry, ESG, and early Tricky. “Who Me?” caught the ears of everyone from Ben UFO (who hosted LAPS live at XOYO and on Rinse FM) to Rihanna, who featured their music in her Savage x Fenty show at this year’s NYFW. 

On remix duties, LA producer M. Geddes Gengras appears under his Duppy Gun alias, chopping the vocal track into a pleasantly disorienting remix. Vancouver-based D. Tiffany (1080p, Coastal Haze, Pacific Rhythm) and Melbourne up-and-comer Roza Terenzi collaborate on a stripped-back, high-energy take, while ANY WAYS, a.k.a. Tom Marshallsay (Golden Teacher, General Ludd) rounds out the EP, bringing it back to Glasgow. 

“Who Me?” and “Ladybug” were originally released in July 2017 by MIC Records (London, UK). This EP is a co-release between MIC and DFA. Vinyl 12" coming soon.
