Dusty Fingers

12" : £ 6.95

Just in time to conclude the summer, Retreat brings the heat with a soulful EP from one of it's founders (and future Phonica Radio star!) - Quarion. As the name implies, "Dusty Fingers" sees the beatmaker return to his Hip-Hop roots and dig in the crates for a sample-based deep & dirty 3 tracker! "Turn Off The Light" is a tribute to mid-nineties House Garage classics, when the drums were 'phat' and the basslines heavy. "Seems Like..." starts with a heavy 808 pattern and phased drone that later evolves into a string section. Finally "Going Away" takes you in outer space as a skipping rhodes lick plays with bruk-style drums that are straight out the MPC. Nice one!
