Back at the start of the year Kelly Lee Owens released an album of woozy, slightly off kilter dance music songs. It was stuck to my turntable for a while and will be dug out again before the end of the year. Kelly has reworked a new song by Mount Kimbie, a dance music duo who started in dubstep and moved elsewhere- ambient electronica, future garage. The result is right up my street, a repetitive echoey sound to open and a single kick drum, and then several minutes of build, layers of sound on top of each. When the bass hits at two minutes everything gets spaced out a bit. The echoey, keening sound comes back with some pow-pows. By the time the vocal comes in at four minutes you're well away, transported elsewhere. Blissful stuff.

Yep, I like this one a lot.
Just put her album back on in the car player on Monday and Tuesday, as good as this year has produced. I look forward to hearing this!
I've tried to find this with no success. However that's not really what i wanted to say. I'm really enjoying all the recent posts whilst dutifully waiting in for a washing machine to be delivered. You've eased the pain. So much great stuff .Thanks for all of this.
Thank you Gullybully- glad to ease the waiting for white goods pain. I don't know why this track got removed only 2 days after being put up- I can't find it anywhere either.
