Description
2024, 12″, Leng.
Andy Meecham’s forthcoming ninth album as the Emperor Machine, Island Boogie, is a genuine treat – a wonderfully colourful and effects-laden trip into what the former Bizarre Inc and Chicken Lips man calls ‘electronic cosmic disco-boogie’. To get us all in the Mood, Leng have served up this EP of dubs and remixes. In the latter category you’ll find a superb, piano solo-laden proto-house rework of ‘Devoilez-Vous’ by fellow Stafford act T Kutt, and a typically warm, languid Balearic disco interpretation of ‘Island Boogie’ by Leng co-founder Mudd. Meecham delivers two wonderfully skeletal, wayward and trippy instrumental dubs, lightly transforming ‘Devoilez-Vous’ and ‘La Cassette’ in turn. In a word: essential.
