Following Tom Jarmey and Aiden Francis on Houseum sublabel Ellipse Records, French artist 440 Hz steps up next with his ‘Deep Sea Driving’ EP. It’s a psychedelic six-tracker, mellow through subaquatic melodies, though also built for the club with powerful bass, punchy, stripped-back percussion and breakbeat, UKG and acid influences.
‘Mindscape’ kicks the proceedings off with swirling pads, organ keys and crisp grooves before ‘Gazoline’ joins in with its dubbed-out synth hits and elastic womp-like bass. The gorgeous ‘Soul Mirror’ then enters with 2-step drums, trippy harmonies and echoing vocals, while the title track ‘Deep Sea Driving’ features resonant bubbling synths, minimal four-to-the-floor rhythm and more hypnotic layers of underwater melody. Closing out the release, the dancefloor-oriented ‘Chez Jola’ chugs along with alien sounds, reaching for the stars with rolling percussion and gated effects, with peak-time bouncer ‘SF/S’ finishing via acidic basslines and subtle rave elements.
Please note that this record has been pressed as "Eco Vinyl" which means that R.A.N.D. Musik, the manufacturer, mixed all the colours they have leftovers from recycling coloured records. So the colour might change between different copies.
Meaning each copy is unique and earth friendly :)
