Bleep

After big releases on 100% Silk, Mister Saturday Night and Third Ear Recordings, Brooklynite Alex Burkat lands on German institution Permanent Vacation with his Pay The Rent EP. Opening with flutters of synth colour on the title cut, Burkat quickly shifts into party mode, lifting the mood with bright melodies and a stocky drum backing whilst ‘Three Rivers’ pits a nagging chord mutation against grooving guitar licks. On the flip, up steps Hinge Finger’s man of the moment Barnt who conjures up and adds some crystalline touches together with soft flute moments and hushed vocals to leave us all bewitched, followed by the similarly gleaming ‘Supermoon’ that rounds off another strong additional to the Permanent Vacation catalogue.
