fairly intense form of trip-hop; the vibe is captivating so far

This one is a foot in the puddle of my heavier ambient sound with some clackity beats and waves of fuzz from my guitar, but not so fuzzy the lord can't hear the melodies. There is a sample in there somewhere from some Beach Boys ripoff 60s vocal group and it originally sounded like they were saying "Hurry" which is where the name came from. Under all the layers of guitar and shit you can hardly hear it.

For his Dark Clover debut, James Davey a.k.a. Blak Nite unsheaths the technical prowess which had him pushing the boundaries of post-Ed Banger heavyness on his previous EPs, and repurposes it for slower, if not necessarily less intense jams. In simply and overtly trying to fit the pallete of what James sees as "the Origami Sound sound", he accomplishes so much more, his "Shadow Party" leveraging not only his considerable talent but a wide array of impeccable influences into bass music truly worthy of the oft-abused "future" hashtag.

Going for "something that sounded as if it was found in a ditch or gutter or down a back alley", Blak Nite delivers instantly memorable sonics – like a garbage pail coming to life, the din of its unholy movement providing the percussion, as it wrests old ghetto blasters from itself and plays whatever damaged tapes were in them when first discarded. "Dope Machine" firmly establishes this aesthetic from the outset, and employs a cinematic flair for mystery, before erupting into an uplifting assembly of manipulated vocals. "Shake" lays masterfully restrained Burial-esque heartwrenching upon a bed of brooding bass and truly broken beats. "Wicca" takes the deconstruction further... by now the beats are falling apart in real time before our ears, the vocals hauntingly and musically detune, with the song climaxing via Blak Nite's introduction of a signature grimy bass that seems to have built up organically from the crackle, hiss, feedback and detritus. "MoNY", by far the most jocular of the four, racks up the tension via its unnerving rhythm before revealing itself as a soothing finale worthy of innumerable gasps of contention.

Every track is "littered" with myriad small details, brief dialogue samples, movie quotes, all of them faintly audible at times... unveiling the considerable concept, meaning and soul poured into these songs, but only at the cost of lenghty repeated listening. Dim the lights, and have yourself a shadow party.

Jacaszek - Dance

"There's blood on the floor,
And I needed you the most."

There was a moment after my daughter, Sofia, was born, while her and her mother were away for check-ups in another ward, and I was left in the birth room, alone for a while with the ambiance of the beeping hospital machinery playing disharmonic arpeggios, splatters of blood on the floor from the birth, sun shining through the window. In total submission to the world, in total awe at the beauty of life in its prime.
