The track is built around a wigged-out vocal sample and an acid beat pattern that is impossible to shake off.

Buy
The group throw a curve ball through with a wall of noise slowly building for a few seconds before everything swirls into place and that synth riff that will be stuck in your head for days to come yearns into place and the drums gallop into stride with that twitchy, twangy groove. Its a proper banger this one and sets the pace for the rest of La Di Da Di perfectly

Above Water
King Midas Sound / Fennesz

Digital Arpeggios
Percussions
Digital Arpeggios
9:01
Buy
The first minutes, our ears are washed in wave on wave undulating Emeralds-inspired synth arp noise - the drop anticipation never far away. And when it arrives in a clipped 4/4 shuffle -redolent of his partner in wax, Floating Points- you know you are onto a winner.
