How do you follow-up the biggest 12" of the year (Hyph Mngo on Hotflush) and
the kind of mass adulation not usually associated with UK bass music? Easy,
make another one. This, at least, seems to be the strategy employed by Peter
O'Grady, aka Joy Orbison, who lifts the lid on his very own doldrums label
with another precisely built low-end double whammy likely to set the world
alight all over again. "J.Doe" sits on the a-side and slowly digests and
chews up a vocal sample with the same kind of alchemical brilliance that made
"Hyph Mngo" so unforgettable. But this is an altogether more complex and
brooding number, constructed out of hazy synth breakdowns and a scattered
percussive spine that's swallowed by that frayed yet crisp production that's
set to become Orbison's unique stylistic signature. It's one of those classic
wrong-footiing beasts, sounding too slow and then too fast, uplifting yet
morose - and at all times just utterly brilliant. "BRKLN CLLN" on the
flipside is brighter and more uptempo, knocking more unfathomably righteous
synths and heavyweight bass movements into a magnificently arranged
dancefloor destroyer you'll no doubt be hearing endlessly for the next 12
months. Honestly, we were worried we'd be let down, but as far as we're
concerned it's now sealed - the boy can do no wrong. KILLER!
Played by guys like Scuba (Hotflush), Modeselektor (Get Physical Music) and
Martyn (3024)!
