Captain Attractive - Drum Chums Vol. 5
TD-CHUMS005

A1. It's More Fun 2 Make Love
A2. Memories
B1. Dreamer
B2. Ghana Do It

Drum Chums Vol. 5 marks the arrival of Captain Attractive, an international man of mystery, head-nod hero and edit expert whose many masterpieces inspired us to pick up the scalpel in the first place. Last seen leaving Berlin on a world tour, this legend parked the Red Motorbike outside Talking Drums HQ and treated us to a lesson in San Fran sleaze, hippie disco and MPC bump.

The A-side opens with the sticky funk of “It’s More Fun 2 Make Love”, a pitched down disco cruiser extended for the tantric dance floor and mastered on an old porno VHS. Sultry, slinky and rated X. We’re always hungry after the act and graciously Captain Attractive is on hand with a donut called “Memories” to close out the A-side, looping some sweet soul into the kind of hypnotic hip hop as house romper which defined beatdown way back when. 

The Captain takes the yacht to the Med on the B1 with the super Balearic groove of “Dreamer”, an astounding combination of dexterous bass, choral vocals and rolling piano, all set to the shimmy of hippie percussion. It could be a Laurel Canyon memory, an Xtian obscurity or something much deeper, but it’s definitely twelve minutes of sunset bliss - just wait until my guy flips the script after seven minutes! The dude drops the curtain with another bitesize portion of MPC mastery, cutting up some thick wax guitar and cool keys over a swung groove for “Ghana Do It”. Captain Attractive taking you where you want to go.

100% Drum Fun Guaranteed.

Hormone self-released their eponymous debut in 2017, chiseling out tracks from the bedrock of boogie funk and bedroom disco with forays into the hazier quadrants of dance pop. “Smoothsayer,” their new EP on Dream Chimney, sees the duo leaning into a more focused version of this sound, with smacky drums, luxe synth pads and rubbery bass lines rolling out alongside contrasting tracks with a sense of quiet weightlessness, all tied together with the cool, drizzly beauty of Clement’s vocal layers. 

Rounding out the compact 4 trackers are remixes that give the tracks the full Dream Chimney treatment, with a breakified dreamgaze flip of Smoothsayer by labelmate Sorcerer and our premiere feature, a balearic chug dub of Wallfacer by the Chimney's own.
