When it comes to being a man of many talents, there are few to equal Richard Norris. DJ, producer, musician, audiovisual artist, A&R man, author and journalist, his is a career of many twists and turns which have always seen him at the forefront of pushing new ideas forward and championing diversity and innovation, be it alongside Erol Alkan as part of The Wizard's Sleeve, or gone solo as the acclaimed Time & Space Machine.
With the long awaited follow-up to his official debut album "Set Phazer To Stun" imminent, Tirk have decided to do tease us with this special single featuring one new original cut alongside a brace of tasty remixes.
‘Pill Party In India’ is rich with the energetic twang of Americana, carried down a highway of fast-paced bongos and live drums with interludes of blips, wiggles and ghostly soundtrails. It's a twangy, tripped-out post-punk cosmic disco-not-disco bomb! Next up Mojo Filter delivers his 'Om Nama Shiva Remix'. Think squelching acid basslines under traditional plucked Indian instrumentation, with strings and on-point production values and you're about there. This has to be heard to be believed. Lastly, the mighty Psychemagik come into view with a totally awesome rework on the flip. Running with the post-punk idea, the feel of this compares with underground psych-tinted electro-dance tracks from the 80s (or even the kind of tech-trance that the World Unknown label like to put out) - but with the addition of that 2012 fatness in the production. The bass is chunky, mesmerizing sounds fly at you gloriously in superwide stereo and there's some cracking vocal samples added to great effect too. Essential!
