Bleep

Continuing in their recent re-excursions into dancefloor centric singles, the mighty XL come up trumps again with their latest signing, Gila. The four tracks presented here by the Denver based producer show an accomplished knack for song-craft suitable for MC or simply as standalone works. Ethereal, breathy whispers open up ‘Tuff Whisper’ before clanging 808 drums hit the frame. The nu-grime sounds of ‘Snopack’ are straight icy! Though this is the spacious, weightless realm that’s being walked rather than classic era. ‘Don’t Chirp’ features a flirting bird song sample sat atop those same style 808 drums.
