A week of mainly new releases reaches a conclusion today with a new EP from Stash Magnetic, a London based duo who promise Electronic Dark Wave Techno Psychedelic. Underground Deception delivers on all of those fronts with an eight minute Moog synth adventure, analogue sounds, rolling rhythms and voices from the netherworld. I'd be tempted to add space/ psyche/ space- goth to the list.
Friend of this blog Rude Audio turn up on remix duties, a relatively short by Rude Audio standards seven minute excursion, the South London dub styling brought into contact with Stash Magnetic's galaxy bound wanderings. Space dub with a side order of goth- disco in the vocals. I first encountered this remix in Rude Audio's car, driving from Hebden Bridge to Todmorden back in April, just as the sun was going down- the perfect setting for it but my guess is it'll work fine wherever you are right now.
The third track is Stash Magnetic's own edit- the Panic In The Chillout Room Mix. Panic in the chillout room is something nobody looks forward to. Thankfully the edit goes largely with the chillout rather than the panic, slowing things down and finding some further space in the grooves. A dirty guitar riff crunches its way in, an alien invader looking for somewhere to rest.
You can hear/ buy Underground Deception at Bandcamp.
