Description
2018, 12″ EP, Coastal Haze.
This time last year, Discwoman member Cindy Li AKA Ciel made her debut on Shanti Celeste’s Peach Discs imprint via the hugely impressive “Electrical Encounters EP”. The Toronto producer is in fine form on this belated follow-up, which also marks her first outing on Coastal Haze. Li hits the ground running with “Hundred Flowers Groove”, a wonderfully percussive jack-track full of heavy sub-bass, picturesque electronic melodies and densely layered drums, before drifting towards ultra-deep ambient house territory via the hypnotic bliss of “Blo A Wish”. Over on Side B, it’s all about “The Twirler”, a rhythmically complex trip into hazy broken house/deep electro fusion that’s also given a smoother 4-4 house makeover in the shape of the evocative and emotionally rich “Central Remix”. – Juno
