RELEASE
Various - Kraken EP
LABEL: Semi Delicious
PDD are pleased to welcome Demi Riquísimo's Semi Delicious imprint into their ever growing label roster. The label returns for their 15th edition with another versatile, club ready collection of cuts from old & new members of the label family. The EP features contributions from regulars Lulah Francs, Jive Talk & label owner Demi alongside debuts from NairLess, Last Magpie, Corbi and Michelle Manetti. The A-side kicks off with ‘All I Need’, a collaborative track from Demi & Michelle Manetti. A bouncing, progressive house number with some old school Italian flavour that sets the tone nicely for the EP. Corbi’s ‘Kraken’ is up next providing some driving, analogue acid squelch to SEMID015. ‘Don't Make Me Wait’ by Lulah Francs & Nebari wraps up the Ice Cream side. Proto house style drum programming and bass are juxtaposed nicely to the psychedelic synth work and impeccable vocals from Lulah creating a unique and versatile track to close out the A-side. The B-side opens with NairLess’ ‘Swell’, a tripped-out slice of Balearic trance. The EP takes a slightly more heads downturn on ‘Release It’ by Last Magpie. A menacing track driven by a sharp synth line that you’re sure to hear over festival season. Jive Talk’s ‘Wizard’s Slippers’ wraps up the EP in their imitable style. Off kilter drums, unique bass, and minimalism with the perfect number of elements to pique the listener’s interest bringing SEMID015 to a close in style.
