second ep from this hong kong based trio featuring james banbury ( serviceav<\/a>, and the brilliant dadahack<\/a> ). having decamped to hong kong a few years ago to settle into a normal job after years of being an in demand session musician\/strings arranger, i knew it wouldn’t be too long before the bug bit and james would have to start making music again.<\/p>\n a few months ago came the first fruits of his latest adventure, anxious party people<\/font> ep, with superb remixes from factory floor<\/strong>, and preservation<\/strong> (ft. mike ladd).<\/p>\n upon hearing it i sent a message to james advising he should get the music through to giles peterson as the freaky jazz-funk grooves would probably appeal to his eclectic tastes, and sure enough the response was that giles was indeed going to feature the band on a soon to be released compilation<\/a>.<\/p>\n building on the success of the debut ep comes this brilliant follow up.<\/p>\n opener track, loosefoot<\/font>, is the track that most hits the spot for me.<\/p>\n with its strange pharoah sanders saxophone line and beta band<\/strong> styled layered vocals sitting on top of a funk groove that a certain ratio<\/strong> would be proud of, the track is a truly addictive.<\/p>\n the instrumental owellian woman<\/font> ducks and dives while making sure the core is indebted to the dance floor albeit in a psychedelic jazz vibe, and the extended 7 minute groove of the forest is expecting you<\/font> brings back the vocals, tribal drums, and schizoid shriekback<\/strong> atmospherics to close the ep in epic style.<\/p>\n highly recommended.<\/p>\n
