Warp's newest signing, the NYC based vocalist Lafawndah unveils Tan, a four track EP featuring FWD-facing production from one of Night Slugs bosses L-Vis 1990 and ADR (recently seen debuting on PAN) starting on a roll Town Crier blends production akin to Portishead's Third with machine-gun-like snares and militant trap drums rolling to the behest of Lafawndah's on-point vocal delivery. Ally strips back the percussion with some lightly tapping snares with a mid 00's UKF feel before the EP's big number Tan rolls down a bass heavy banger with flourishes of synths adding a solid techno texture before capping off with the (almost) tribal house dub number Crumb. Startling debut for anyone currently caning recent drops by Kelela, Arca or Jlin.
