LEON VYNEHALL 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: Leon Vynhell has made some of the most interesting albums of the last few years. He's a prolific producer with a very different take on things, and a DJ who reaches just as far into the unknown. He proves that here with a super mix for the Fabric Present's series. His own 'Sugar Slip' opens with a hunched, stripped back but killer garage house rhythm then tunes from Or:la get percussive,
Skee Mask's 'Untitled 279' layer up the breakbeats and Piero Umiliani's 'Produzione' is a wild and wonderful Latin tinged rhythm that never lets up.

Review: On his contribution to the long-running "DJ Kicks" series, Leon Vynehall has decided to take a widescreen approach, offering up a blend that showcases the depth and variety of his music collection rather than his club-rocking skills. The first half of the mix ebbs and flows with the laidback drowsiness of his selections, which flit between post trip-hop beats, ambient, IDM, electronica and crunchy post-punk pop. Midway through he begins to crank things up a notch or two via RAC's UK garage-influenced 1997 cut "Fushigi", the chunky peak-time warmth of Crinan's "Kilimanjaro" and the bass-heavy pump of Ploy's "Pressure", before unleashing some seriously intense experimental dancefloor workouts from the likes of Etch, Aphex Twin and Peach. It makes for a hugely enjoyable and at times breathtakingly brilliant musical journey.
